Gents 9ct Gold Audax Wrist Watch, 1960

Gents 9ct gold Audax wrist watch, 1960.

The watch has a Swiss 17-jewel ETA hand-winding movement, signed Audax, 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 case back for London 1960, together with a maker’s mark for the Birmingham based watch case maker Aaron Dennison. Dennisons supplied various watch makers with gold and steel cases. The front and sides of the case are in good condition. There is some light marking to the back but there are no personal inscriptions.

The lens is in lovely condition.

The dial is signed Audax, 17 jewels and Incabloc (which refers to the shockproofing system within the movement). Original hands, seconds sweep and subsidiary seconds dial. There is some light freckling across the dial.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
