WW1 square hunting cased men's silver military style wristwatch. |
|
| Dateline: Dated 1916 |
Item# 36580 |

A First World War men's hunting cased wristwatch. This has a very rare square silver case, the front cover springs open when the button at 6 is pressed. The hunting case was designed to protect the dial from knocks. More commonly seen in pocket watches, these are quite rare in wristwatches (this is a genuine wristwatch & not a converted pocket watch).The front cover has engraved initials on it, the rear is smooth. It has the London import silver marks for 1916 & the casemakers mark SD. The dial is covered with a glass in a silver bezel. The black military style dial is excellent, the numbers & hands retain most of their luminous paint infil, although no longer active after nearly 100 years. The lever movement is marked SWISS MADE. It is running well & keeping good time. Probably bought privately for use in military service, this would most likely have been worn by an officer as watches of this type would have been very expensive.
Condition: Excellent
Dimensions: 1,1/4" x 1,1/4" (32mm x 32mm) excluding crown & strap lugs
