Item History & Price
Description of the item for sale:
This watch was bought from the first owner who bought it new during the 1940-1950 period and who has kept it during all this time. During the final years (40) it's been mostly in a drawer.
The man was a Belgian resident, but could not remember where he bought the watch. The case is made of solid steel, and has reference number 22283. It is 36mm in size and appears to be unpolished. There are a few cosmetic defects that should be mention...ed:The dial: There are some spots, some varnish has deteriorated and discolored. I do however believe the dial has not been repainted or tampered with. It's original.
