Watch: 1930s Ilix Pocket Watch

The watch has a good quality nicely jewelled Swiss hand-winding movement, which is working well. The movement is signed Ilix, Swiss Made. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has some scratching where it has been opened in the past. The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated and was made by the Illinois Watch Case Company. The case has light surface marking and a couple of small “dings” to the hinged back but overall it is in nice condition for a 1930s piece. The dial has blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track. There are three hairline cracks but two are very faint and difficult to see with the naked eye. The third is visible but still faint. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage.
