Watch: Gents 1950s Royce Wrist Watch

The watch has a Swiss 17-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Royce, a brand name registered by several companies from the 1930s up to the 1960s. The watch is a good size at 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is chromium plated and there is age related marking and wear. The screw-on case back is stainless steel. It is signed and also states that the watch is waterproof but, as with any vintage watch, it should be kept away from water and moisture. The lens is in good condition. The signed dial is in its original textured finish with dauphine shaped hands, a centre seconds hand and outer minute markers. It has a later leather strap. The watch comes in a new presentation box.
