The present timepiece represents a rare value proposition in the field of vintage watches. Impressing the beholder with a large-for-the-time 37mm diameter and a completely unrestored dial sporting a highly unusual and charming mottled champagne patina, this wristwatch is the ideal choice for the enthusiast of vintage timepieces looking for a daily wear piece which exudes vintage charm and at the same time sports a simple, timeless aesthetic as enjoyable by today’s fashion canons as it was 80 years ago.
A touch of intellectual intrigue is provided by the fixed lugs. Such a solution was usually employed for steel military or professional timepieces - in order to better secure the watch to the wrist. It is quite unusual to find the feature in a gold dress piece such as the present one.
Finally, it is worth mentioning how the movement finish appears to be of very high quality, featuring a Côtes de Genève finish.
