Description

Gents 1950s Aristo automatic wrist watch.

The watch has 25-jewel automatic movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is gold plated while the screw on case back is stainless steel. The case is in good condition, just light surface marking to the back but not too detrimental at all. The back of the watch states that the watch is waterproof but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture.

The lens is in lovely condition.

The dial is signed Aristo, a brand name registered by several watch assembly companies. It is in its original finish with original hands and centre seconds (very slightly out of shape if you look very closely).

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Vintage Aristo Wristwatch to the 1950s.

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.

We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.

FAQs

Wristwatches from the 1950s typically feature clean, minimalist dials, slim profiles, and distinctive lugs, reflecting post-war modernism and functional design.

Timepieces from this era commonly utilised gold-plated or stainless steel cases, acrylic crystals, and genuine leather straps, often powered by mechanical or early automatic movements containing ruby jewels.

Authenticity is verified by examining the movement calibre for hallmarking and maker signatures, checking for Swiss-made dial stampings, and inspecting the wear patterns and materials consistent with mid-century manufacturing techniques.

Pairing a classic mechanical watch with tailored garments or smart-casual attire highlights its timeless elegance, serving as a subtle focal point without overpowering modern aesthetics.

Preservation requires avoiding moisture exposure, keeping the mechanical movement serviced by a professional horologist every few years, and storing the piece in a dry, temperature-controlled environment.
