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

Introduced in the mid-20th century, the Cyma Navystar line represented the brands water-resistant and shock-resistant mechanical dress watch offerings. Cyma utilised proprietary Cymaflex shock protection systems in these Swiss-made timepieces throughout the 1950s and 1960s.

Mid-century Swiss watches commonly featured stainless steel or chrome-plated cases paired with acrylic crystals and hand-wound mechanical movements. Dials often incorporated gilt or plated hour markers with leather straps for daily wear.

Authentic period watches display precise dial typography, branded mechanical movements, and appropriate reference numbers stamped inside the case back. Wear pattern consistency across the case, dial, and hands also helps verify era alignment.

A mid-century dress watch featuring a dark dial and tan leather strap pairs with formal tailoring as well as casual attire. Its proportions complement contemporary wrist wear styles while maintaining a classic profile.

Keep mechanical timepieces away from water, moisture, and strong magnetic fields, and have the movement serviced by a watchmaker every three to five years. Wind hand-wound models gently until resistance is felt to prevent mainspring damage.
