Watch: Gents 1960s Creation Mastership Automatic Wrist Watch

The watch has a 17-jewel automatic movement which is working nicely. The rotor is signed Creation Watch Co. You can sometimes hear the rotor moving but not too bad at all. Création Watch Co Sa was founded in Bienne in May 1948 by Paul Honsberger. In March 1950 the company merged with Isola Sa, manufacturers and wholesalers of watches. The watch measures 35mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is chromium plated and it is in beautiful condition. The screw-on case back is stainless steel, there is some scratching where a case opening tool has slipped in the past. The lens is in lovely condition and has a magnification window over the date display. The signed dial is in its original finish with original hands, date display at 3 o’clock and a day display above number 6. The day is changing by turning the hands forwards continuously while the date is changed by repeatedly moving the hands backwards and forwards between 10 pm and 2am. There is some freckling across the dial. A new leather strap has been fitted. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage.
