Description
This is an automatically translated text.
This hardly available men's watch from bwc-Swiss is a relic from the 70s and in excellent condition. It comes from my watch collection and has been worn very little. Glass and case are without scratches and the dial is flawless. The rounded square above the 6 for the small seconds indication is particularly unusual. The watch has been cleaned, oiled and tested. the power reserve is a good 40 hours with good accuracy, which is not a given for a vintage watch. But this watch is the Swiss Wehrmacht movement Unitas 6325 with 17 jewels, which has run relatively little. Thus, this watch is not only a nice collectible, but also well suited to accompany a lover of vintage watches through everyday life.
Buttes Watch Co, was founded in 1924 by Arthur Charlet in the Swiss canton of Nauenburg. From the beginning, the history of bwc is connected with the gold and watch city of Pforzheim in Germany. In the early days, the main production was pocket watches of all designs. In 1930, the production of wristwatches was started and in 1938 the production of the caliber as 1130 began, which later acquired the highest quality reputation as the "Wehrmachtsuhr".
Then as now, the highest quality standards form the basis for the company's success. From development to the manufacturing process, validated procedures guarantee the best quality. Supported by an innovative team of designers in cooperation with dedicated watchmakers, a collection for the mid-price segment was designed.
With this watch you acquire a gem of Swiss-German watch history in excellent condition at an attractive price. The watch is delivered in a watch box.
