Manufactured in Switzerland in the 1950's by the Sellita Watch Company, this all polished stainless steel wristwatch features a 31.9 mm / 1.26" diameter case, excluding crown and lugs, that surrounds a very lightly aged gold dial, complimented by once-luminous but now dimmed, gold hour and minute leaf hands, gold center sweep, raised gold Arabic art-deco numbers and baton markers,and black outer chapter, all under a bright clear crystal.

The Swiss17 jewel, unadjusted incabloc movement, cal.K2X, sets and winds as it should, is running strong, and keeping very good time.

This beautiful timepiece has an unbreakable mainspring, is antimagnetic and shock resistant with a screw-down back and has been fitted with a vintage scissor flex stainless band which suits it well.
