Description

Gents 1929 silver Lanco wrist watch.

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Lanco, a brand name first registered by Langendorf in 1913.

The watch measures 27mm wide excluding the winding crown and 32mm high excluding the lugs. The case is silver and there are hallmarks on the back of the watch for Edinburgh (import mark), 1929. Overall, the case is in good condition, just the odd minor mark, nothing too serious at all.

The convex lens is in good condition (some reflection showing in the photos).

The dial is in its original finish with original hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and inner minute markers.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Vintage Silver Wristwatch to the 1920s.

FAQs

Wristwatches from the 1920s frequently feature geometric shapes, such as rectangular or tonneau cases, transitioning pocket watch movements into wearable wrist accessories influenced by the early art deco movement.

Traditional timepieces from this era typically utilized sterling silver, gold, or nickel-plated brass for cases, paired with enamel dials, mineral glass crystals, and genuine leather straps.

Authentic pieces can be identified by hallmarks stamped on the case interior, mechanical hand-wound movements, fixed or wire lugs, and characteristic patina on the dial and hands.

When not being worn, a vintage timepiece is best displayed on a dedicated watch stand or stored within a lined valet tray on a dresser or desk as a functional horological artifact.

Preserving vintage mechanical watches requires avoiding moisture and magnetic fields, storing them in stable environments, and having them periodically serviced by a professional horologist.
