This was a specialty chronograph and useful for scientific and industrial applications to measure events to the fraction of a MINUTE, so an event may take say, 2.75 minutes instead of the customary 2 minutes 45 seconds. 34mm stainless steel snap back case signed by Gallet with original oval pushers and crown, all in excellent condition with no damage or personalization and only light use showing. Inside beats a Gallet 15 jewel movement that is running properly with all functions working as they should and keeping good time. New black croc grain leather strap.

Oversized push button onion crown flips the front cover open to reveal the full porcelain dial with no cracks or hairlines. Top grade SS & Co (Stauffer) Swiss made gilded pin set movement that is as crisp and clean as the day it left the factory, is freshly serviced and winds, sets and runs like new.

Very rare and beautiful and virtually unworn mint condition.

Interestingly, the inscription is apparently from one lady to another and the watch was evidently not gifted to a man, although it is definitely a large sized man's watch. The inscription is very touching and intriguing and was given for "very loving services" in her "time of weakness." dated in Edinburgh (Scotland), Feb. 1914.

This is an all-original, solid gold 100% Rolex first-year production Tudor with the original Rolex caliber 59 manual movement and NOT the later ETA movement. During W.W. II Rolex saw a market for Rolex quality watches but at a more modest price. Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex, responded in 1946 with the first models of the Tudor line of Rolex watches. The earliest Tudor's used in-house Rolex movements and the next year, in 1947, they started using ETA ebauche's which were built to Rolex specifications and finished, timed and cased at the Rolex factory.

This is a very special solid 18 karat yellow gold automatic with an unprecedented 65 ruby jeweled movement from Bucherer, a highly respected Swiss maker and dating to the late 1960's. During this era, many high-end Swiss makers were vying for the prestige of making the most highly jeweled mechanical movement. At 65 jewels, this movement has more than twice the number of rubies required to minimize friction and wear in all places needed for maximum performance. The rest of the rubies are not really necessary at all and many are placed solely for the purpose of holding the bragging rights to the most highly jeweled movement and have no practical function, really. Bucherer later lost those bragging rights to several other makers who put up to 100 jewels in their movements but still, this is a very unique and totally remarkable watch. Movement is bright and clean and keeping good time. This extraordinary movement is housed in a large 36.5mm x 44 mm 18 karat solid yellow gold case which is lightly used and still in beautiful extra fine condition with no scratches, dings or damage. Original solid gold crown but the stem has been very slightly hit and you can feel it when the watch is wound or set but it is not a problem and does not interfere with the proper use or operation of this fine watch. The factory original yellow gold dial with gold applied batons and date window at 3:00 is signed with the company logo and "Bucherer, 65 Jewels, Swiss Made." The dial shows a minor ding near 3:00 from a previous service which is only visible under magnification, and some light dust particles. Original solid gold hands set with sweep seconds. Original crystal with one or two very light scratches near the edge which are not really noticeable and could easily be polished out if desired. Overall a very beautiful and remarkable dress watch.

This early Tavannes wristwatch is quality throughout.

Original scratch resistant crystal with Cyclops window over date is scratch free and clear. Rolex signed watches have a movement designed and manufactured in-house by Rolex where as the Tudor line has an ETA ebauche which is a basic movement frame which is then completed and finished and regulated to Rolex specifications at the Rolex factory by Rolex. The Tudor line was created by Hans Wilsdorf at the end of WW2 when he saw a market for a more modestly priced Rolex and for the buyer who wanted a dependable waterproof Rolex quality watch but who didn't want to flaunt the Rolex logo dial or pay twice the price for the Rolex logo on the dial. Fitted with a new brown padded leather strap. Very collectable Rolex Tudor and perfect for everyday wear.

Very cool and one of the earliest waterproof rectangular or tank shaped cases we've seen. The movement sits in a solid block of stainless steel which is inserted up into the stainless steel case and seals against the crystal with two screws from the back. From the looks of the clean factory original dial and the crisp clean original Kelbert movement inside, it was a sound design. Nice big 28mm x 36mm tank all stainless steel case is is superb condition with no scratches or damage. Factory original dial in a pale honey tone with gold leaf trim and Roman numerals at 3, 6, 9 and 12 with the original hands in blued steel. The original luminous material is an exact color match between the dial and minutes hand but for some reason the hour hand fill has yellowed over time. The dial is signed Kelbert Waterproof Antimagnetic Shockabsorber. Original crystal is clean and clear. Kelbert signed 17 jewel manual wind movement is clean and corrosion free and is keeping good time. This is a very high quality military watch and we were told by the estate that it was worn through WW2 by a U.S. Naval Officer. Fitted with a new brown lizard-calf 18mm strap. Very cool.

Brand new old-stock Rotary skeletonized automatic with it's original box and papers, never sold, never worn. Nice big 37mm x 45mm gold filled case waterproof to 3 atm. White see-through dial with Roman numerals and black moon hands with sweep seconds. 21 jewel Myota automatic movement is completely skeletonized and the entire operation of the watch is visible through the mineral crystals on both front and back. Original unworn black leather alligator pattern 18mm strap and Rotary signed buckle. Fascinating to watch, very practical for daily wear and a handsome attention getter.

This is an accurately restored example of a men’s Elgin military style sterling silver cased watch that bridges the gap between the wire lug W.W.I era and the art deco watches that would dominate the market by the end of the 1920s. While it looks similar to a watch from the Great War it was made in 1923 and it has two distinct differences from earlier models. First is that the dial is enamel finished over metal, not porcelain enamel and second is that it was designed for a strap/band that uses spring bars, not a fold-over strap for solid wire lugs. Full sized sterling silver cushion case measures 32mm x 38mm snap back with original oversized military style crown. The case is superb with no scratches, damage or personalization. White enameled metal dial has been meticulously restored to its factory original appearance. It is complete with a 60 minute outer track border, aged brown (to mimic radium but safe) Arabic numerals, original blue steel spade style hands and a recessed sub-seconds dial with 60 second outer chapter. Signed ELGIN USA below the 12. New old stock flawless glass crystal. Inside we find a clean, Fifteen Jewel manual wind movement (Caliber 464, 3/0 Size) signed ELGIN, U.S.A - 15 JEWELS with serial number #26,527,174 which dates the watch to 1923. It has been freshly serviced by us and is running strong and keeping good time. Fitted with a new 16mm tan genuine pigskin strap in men's length and the original sterling silver buckle. Be sure to save that if you switch straps.
