Updated description - I have sourced and fitted a fully serviced 17J jump hour movement, a big upgrade on the 1J they come with. It now runs, for the most part keeps time but these movements are quite fragile so it does go out sometimes. I also find the hour disc gets a bit stuck, advised to bend the "jump" spring which should help it click over better. It comes with no warranty.

A bit of wear to plating on case, looks like lacquer has worn away a bit. So it needs some work but a rare watch that looks incredibly! Photos don't do the "dial" justice as the camera doesn't pick up the mirrored discs very well.

With the new reproduction (£2.2k RRP!) these are sure to go even higher up in demand and value.

Diameter (inc. crown): 42.2mm
Between Lugs: 20mm

Strap Type: Bracelet - small kink in one link, see photos
Strap Material: Steel

Movement: Handwinding

Jewels: 17
Running: Yes
Timekeeping*: Okay, can go a bit out, but sometimes keeps time. These movements can be a bit temperamental!

IMPORTANT: I am not a watchmaker. All of my watches should be considered spares/repairs. I cannot and do not guarantee a watch will be repairable or that further parts won't be necessary - that is just part and parcel of buying vintage watches. I will happily answer questions to the best of my limited knowledge on watches.

If a service w/ warranty is stated this will be with the repair shop NOT with me, but rest assured your watch will be in safe hands if it has any issues such as time keeping or not running. The repair shop is Greater London/Surrey based, or you can post in at your expense. I still sell as "spares/repairs" despite this, however the advantage is you have the ability to get it repaired yourself for free.

*My subjective opinion based on the age of the piece. Please use photos and judge for yourself.
