Description

Gents 9 carat gold Rotary wrist watch, 1955.

The watch has a 21-jewel automatic movement which is working nicely.

The watch measures 33mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the screw on case back for Birmingham 1955 with a case maker's mark for Aaron Dennison, a prolific case maker who supplied various watch makers with cases.

The heavy gold case has three surface scratches to the back but overall is in good condition, as is the lens.

The dial has a handsome textured finish, original hands, centre seconds hand and outer minute markers. The Rotary name is faint and there is a little darkening to the dial but overall it has a charming look typical of the 1950s.

A “new old stock” leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a vintage Rotary presentation box.
