Whats On Offer
A rather charming 1950s dress watch from Orfina with a beautiful silver dialboasting jewelled hour plots and elegant Dauphine hands. The watch has a distinct vintage look and at just under 30mm is slight in proportions. The case sides and back are crafted from stainless steel with rose gold-topped lugs and bezel which looks rather stunning. Although the dial indicates that this watch is waterproof – we could not guarantee this given the age of the piece.
It is powered by theETA calibre 1080which launched in 1950 and its construction was pioneering for nearly all manual wind movements of that decade. This watch is running well and looks very pretty on the wrist, it would certainly make a beautiful vintage addition to any collection.
