Watch : Gents 1950s Solo Wrist Watch

The watch has a French 17-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is gold plated. The front is in good condition with just the odd small mark, nothing serious at all. There is wear and marking to the plate on the back of the watch. Stainless steel case back signed with the name Solo, a brand name registered by Solo SARL of Paris. The lens is in good condition (there is a little reflection showing in the photos). The signed dial is in its original finish, with a part textured design. The dial has darkened a little over the years but still very easy to read the time. A later leather strap has been fitted. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland). Please contact us before placing international orders so that we can advise of shipping prices and to see if customs regulations allow us to post watches to your country. The international buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and taxes. All of our watches are checked over before listing and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
