We would like to introduce you to vintage watches from the British brand SMITHS.

Smith is a historic British manufacturer that has been making watches since the days of pocket watches. Although it stopped manufacturing watches for a while, it resumed its own manufacturing operations in the UK after World War II.

This is a gold-colored dress watch from the 1950s.
It is a 15 jewel Smith mechanical movement type called DeLux.
The centre of the dial is unique, giving this watch a design that is typical of Smith.
The case is made by Denison Cases, a high-end British case manufacturer.
It is unknown whether it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.

We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
