Despite the name Premier, this is one of the cheaper solid gold men’s Roamer watches you will find.
HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the hallmark on the inside of the case back we can accurately date this watch to being assayed in 1961.
CONDITION
In a year where gold has increased in price by 17% (at time of press), why is this gold watch so cheap? It has a 17 jewel, MST (Roamer) movement inside which is working well, but it is missing the second hand it would likely have had from new. The design of the case is also done to minimise the amount of precious gold needed, using thin lugs and solid bars for the strap rather than thicker lugs that would take spring bars. The dial has some patina, particularly around the Roamer logo, but overall is presentable. The leather strap maybe the original, so we have left it on. It certainly looks and feels period, but if you would prefer a new strap then we can fit one for you.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.

From 1st September 2021 we will be planting a tree for every watch we sell, working with the International Tree Foundation (Est 1922) to make this business positive on carbon. By buying anything pre owned you are effectively reusing what already exists, but this takes it further and makes us feel good.
