The Vintage Wrist Watch Company

Description

Silver Prefect wrist watch, 1934.

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

The watch measures 29mm wide excluding the winding crown, and 29mm high excluding the lugs… originally designed as a man’s watch, today it could be worn by a man or a lady. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the case back for Glasgow (import mark) 1934 with a sponsor’s mark A5M believed to be Véron Grauer & Co who undertook the British hallmarking of cases on behalf of Swiss watch manufacturers. The case is in lovely condition. The back has an inscription, ‘George, with love from Harry and the Priestleys’.

The lens is in good condition.

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

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a presentation box from a Sidmouth jeweller.
