It was listed by The Vintage Wrist Watch Company. Sold pieces stay on Sellingantiques as a record of what has passed through, and the next one is rarely far away.
The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this piece to the 1920s.
The movement has the serial number 8593993 which dates it back to 1898. As wrist watches were being ever more popular, Waltham took some of their movements and housed them in wrist watch cases, such as this one.
The case measures 31mm wide excluding the winding crown and 32mm high excluding the lugs so it is a very good size for a watch from this era. The case is an attractive combination of finishes and there is nice detailing down each side of the bezel. The lens is in lovely condition.
The dial is signed with the Waltham name. There is some age related darkening and the hour is a later replacement although they both have the same blued steel finish.
A new brown leather strap has been fitted.
Price includes worldwide postage
