HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
This watch was delivered new to us on 31st December 2025. The paperwork isn’t completed with date of sale sadly, and the box has a different serial number to the watch (#274 instead of #247).
CONDITION
This is a new watch, bought because we loved the design and excellent value for money. A 40mm case in 316L steel, a flat sapphire crystal, individually engraved with model number and a look that is multiples of the price. Also, this watch uses a long life 3v lithium battery. The movement is set by pressing in the button at 2 for the minutes, and by pressing the crown inwards to set the hours. One compromise was the watch is delivered on it’s own, and the strap wasn’t fitted – we will supply the watch ready to wear on the unused black original strap. We have worn it a few times on the tan leather strap pictured, just to show the different look. The watch is signed on the dial, case, buckle and strap.
This watch will be supplied with the original presentation box, , blank papers 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.
