Gents 1950s Wrist Watch

1940 - 1960
Description

Gents 1950s wrist watch.

The watch has a 17-jewel Femga 520 hand-winding movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 33.5mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the handsomely shaped lugs. The case is gold plated while the screw-on case back is stainless steel. The case is in lovely condition. The case back 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 super condition (some natural light reflection showing in the photos).

The handsome dial is in its original finish with original hands and centre seconds hand with red pointer end.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

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

Dealers Notes

ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (because of GPSR legislation, we no longer post items less than 100 years old to Europe, including Northern Ireland).

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 a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.

Credit / debit card purchases up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

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.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Mid-century gents wristwatches typically feature modest case diameters, manual-wind mechanical movements, textured or patterned dials, and gold-plated or stainless steel cases fitted with leather straps.

Wristwatches from this era frequently utilised gold-plated or gold-filled brass cases, acrylic crystals, metallic dials with guilloche patterning, and synthetic ruby bearings within the movement mechanism.

Authentic pieces generally display period-correct dial typography, mechanical movements stamped with jewel counts such as 17 rubis, and natural patination across the case and hands.

A mid-century dress watch featuring a gold case and brown leather strap integrates easily into modern formal tailoring as well as smart-casual wardrobes.

Mechanical watches require servicing by a qualified horologist every three to five years, protection from moisture and magnetic fields, and careful manual winding without overtightening the crown.
