Dunhill Circa 1975 33mm round Chronometer manual winding in 925 Silver case

Description

Pre-owned. No box or papers.

A very unusual vintage watch by Dunhill made in sterling silver and plated to prevent oxidisation. The natural solid silver buckle is heavily hallmarked and stamped by AD (Alfred Duhill) while the letter A dates it to 1975.

Watch is used with minor old marks but nothing major and a tiny flake on the original crown that is difficult to see with naked eyes. Otherwise, this watch is very presentable and the strap appears to be an original which is lightly used but good. A very elegant English brand watch for the gentleman or lady.

The manual winding movement is a Felsa calibre and shines as new though we have doubt it is of chronometer spec since there’s an absence of a seconds hand and non-adjusted. We have resealed the case with silicon on the joints but this watch does not have any gaskets and the design is not water resistant so please keep it away from moisture.

Alfred Dunhill has been the epitome of gent’s luxury goods supplier since 1893 and offers many items from leather goods, clothing, writing instruments to watches. Once in a while, they make evocatively styled watches that appeal to collectors with mechanical movements in retro designs.
