WW1 half hunter men's silver wristwatch
|
Dateline: Dated 1916 |
Item# 37012 |
A First World War men's Swiss made half hunter cased wristwatch in very good condition. The silver case has the Glasgow import mark for 1916 & the case makers mark JW. The front cover springs open when the button below 6 is pressed, the rear cover is screw on. There are no personal engravings or initials. The enamelled dial is very good, there is a very faint hairline between 11 & the centre. The Swiss made lever movement is running well & keeping good time. Hunter & half hunter cases were 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). Probably bought privately for use in British military service, this would most likely have been worn by an officer as watches of this quality would have been very expensive.
Condition: Very Good.
Dimensions: 1,3/8" (35mm) diameter excluding winding crown & strap lugs
