Even if this watch was water resistant when made it is NEITHER water resistant NOR waterproof anymore. I suggest to keep vintage watches well away from damp conditions.

No mechanical guarantee is provided for this watch, you buy it ‚as is‘. The watch is ready to wear, after fitting a strap or bracelet (neither is included) still a service is recommended at buyers expense.


Comes from smoke and petfree home.


No strap, no springbars, no box, no papers. Watch is working well, but precision has not been tested and the service history is unknown, so no guarantees.
