FAQs

Wristwatches transitioned from a niche military accessory primarily for women to a mainstream fashion staple for men during and after the First World War, characterised by smaller proportions, enamel dials, and wire lugs.

Casings were typically crafted from sterling silver, nickel, or gold, housing manual-wind mechanical movements featuring rubies as jewel bearings to reduce friction on pivot points.

Authenticity is verified by examining the hallmark stamps inside the case back, the serial number on the movement mechanism matching maker records, and the presence of fixed wire lugs rather than spring bars.

When not being worn as a statement accessory, a vintage wristwatch can be displayed on a dedicated watch stand within a gentlemans library or study to add historical character to a desk setup.

Keep the mechanical movement away from moisture and strong magnetic fields, wind the watch gently at the same time each day, and have it professionally serviced by an horologist every three to five years.
