This hand-wound watch from the 1960s evokes nostalgic feelings and will attract a lot of attention. The special feature of this watch is the small second hand, a typical characteristic of many watches from the 1960s. The watch is in good optical and technical condition for its age, with no scratches on the glass and few signs of wear on the case. The watch has a Swiss movement that has been cleaned, oiled and checked for accuracy. The power reserve is approx. 40 hours.
The Buttes Watch Co. was founded in 1924 by Arthur Charlet in the Swiss canton of Nauenburg. From the very beginning, the history of bwc has been linked to the gold and watchmaking town of Pforzheim in Germany. In the early days, the main focus was on pocket watches of all designs. In 1930, the production of wristwatches began and in 1938 the production of the caliber as 1130 began, which later acquired the highest quality reputation as the "Wehrmacht watch".
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 collaboration with dedicated watchmakers, a collection has been created for the mid-price segment.
With this watch, you are acquiring a gem of Swiss-German watchmaking history in good condition at an attractive price. The watch is supplied in an attractive watch box.
