Gents 1950s/60s Bucherer Automatic Wrist Watch

1940 - 1960
Description

Gents 1950s/60s Bucherer automatic wrist watch.

The watch has a good quality 25-jewel (2 adjustments) automatic movement, an ETA calibre 2452, which is working nicely.

The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is stainless steel and it is in lovely condition. The screw-on case back states that the watch is water resistant but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture.

The lens looks good to the naked eye, a couple of small marks if viewed through a jeweller’s loupe.

The dial is signed Bucherer. It is in its original finish with original hands, centre seconds hand and a date display (an early form of quickset where the date is initially set by turning the hands backwards and forwards between 12 midnight and 8.30pm).

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

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

Bucherer is a Swiss horological manufacturer established in Lucerne in 1888. During the 1950s and 1960s, automatic mechanical movements became central to dress watch design, utilising an internal rotor to wind the mainspring via wrist movement.

Timepieces from this period feature stainless steel or gold-plated cases, acrylic crystals, metallic champagne or silvered dials, and internal mechanical movements incorporating jewel bearings to reduce component friction.

Authentic period watches display precise typography on the dial face, maker markings on the crown, reference and serial numbers stamped on the case interior or case back, and correctly signed internal movements.

A classic mid-century dress watch featuring a neutral dial and leather strap functions as a versatile accessory, suitable for modern formal attire, tailored suits, or smart-casual wear.

Mechanical watches require servicing by a qualified horologist every three to five years to refresh internal lubricants. They should be protected from water exposure, extreme impact, and strong magnetic fields.
