Silver Prefect Wrist Watch, 1934

1920 - 1940
Description

Silver Prefect wrist watch, 1934.

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 29mm wide excluding the winding crown, and 29mm high excluding the lugs… originally designed as a man’s watch, today it could be worn by a man or a lady. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Glasgow (import mark) 1934 with a sponsor’s mark A5M believed to be Véron Grauer & Co who undertook the British hallmarking of cases on behalf of Swiss watch manufacturers. The case is in lovely condition. The back has an inscription, ‘George, with love from Harry and the Priestleys’.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a presentation box from a Sidmouth jeweller.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this 1930s Silver Wrist Watch to the 1930s.

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

Art Deco wrist watches from the 1930s often feature geometric case shapes, such as cushion or rectangular forms, paired with clean Arabic numerals and sub-seconds dials.

These timepieces commonly featured solid silver or gold cases, manual-wind mechanical movements with jewel bearings, and leather wrist straps.

Authenticity can be verified by checking for silver hallmarks inside the case back, age-appropriate dial patina, movement markings such as jewel counts, and period-correct typography.

A classic silver watch with a black leather strap complements both tailored formal suits and smart-casual everyday outfits, adding a subtle historic detail.

Keep the watch away from moisture and strong magnetic fields, wind the movement gently at regular intervals, and have a professional horologist service the mechanism every three to five years.
