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

Certina is a Swiss watchmaker founded in 1888, recognised for producing precise mechanical movements and durable cases. During the 1960s, the brand manufactured classic dress watches featuring minimalist dials, hand-wound or automatic Swiss calibres, and gold-plated or stainless steel cases.

Mid-century dress watches typically featured gold-plated or solid gold cases, acrylic crystal lenses, electroplated brass dials, and genuine leather straps. The internal movements were predominantly mechanical hand-wound or automatic Swiss calibres.

Authentic vintage Certina watches display crisp dial typography, correct logo alignment, and movement reference numbers stamped on the calibre or inner case back. Inspecting the mechanical movement for manufacturer markings helps verify authenticity.

A gold dress watch with a warm brown leather strap pairs with tailored suits, modern smart-casual attire, or minimalist daily wear. The slim profile fits comfortably beneath a shirt cuff for formal and business dress.

Keep mechanical wristwatches away from moisture, extreme temperature changes, and strong magnetic fields. Periodic servicing by a professional watchmaker every three to five years ensures the mechanical components remain lubricated and operational.
