Gents 18ct Gold Wrist Watch, 1927

A gents 18ct gold wrist watch, 1927.

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

The watch itself measures 28mm wide excluding the winding crown and 31mm high excluding the lugs. The case is 18ct gold and there are hallmarks on the back of the watch for 1927 with an importer's mark for George Stockwell, and Continental hallmarks for 18ct gold. The case is in good condition with just some surface marks to the back but not serious at all.

On the photo of the movement you will see two empty screw holes. These are for retaining screws which are not required in this particular case because the movement is held in place by the fitted surround.

The watch glass has a three or four fairly small marks.

The dial has an attractive textured finish. One of the hands looks to be a replacement.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.
