Watch: Gents 1950s Olympic Wrist Watch

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The watch is a good wearable size at 36mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The front section is plated, the centre alloy and the case back is stainless steel, a combination often seen in watches made after the mid 1940s. There is some marking to the watch but overall acceptable for such an early piece. The lens is in good condition. The dial is signed Olympic, a brand name registered by several companies. It is in its original finish with original dauphine shaped hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers. There is some marking to the dial but again, not too detrimental. A new leather strap has been fitted. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage.
