HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?
From the production dates of the movement we can date this watch to being made circa 1970. Jowissa were formed in 1953, by Jos. Wyss.
CONDITION
The styling of this watch is very late sixties/early seventies, with hooded lugs meaning you have a very strong yet space age looking case design. That suits the movement, as despite it boasting 23 jewels it is not a jeweled lever movement, but a pin pallet instead. So we are not talking fine horology, but it does work and keep time. The movement isn’t as finely engineered and finished as say a Certina or an Omega of this period, but it is not at their prices either. The case is chromed, which is not showing any pitting, and is all in decent shape. The main part of this watch is the dial in a mid blue, which works really well as a piece of design in our eyes. The leather strap is new.
This watch will be supplied with our branded presentation box and our Certificate of Authenticity.
