Omega Seamaster Ref.2984 c.1958
This rare Seamaster model has highly unusual, angular, so-called ‘spider’ lugs. Dramatically different in appearance from other Seamaster models of the period, the Ref.2984 was first introduced by Omega in 1958. Great attention to detail has been paid to the design of the watch from its specially designed lugs, to the original faceted crown, alpha-shaped hands, and slim lugs with chamfered sides. Lightly patinated and with a creamy silvered finish, the dial is in lovely condition with a rich lustre. The bezel has a flat polished finish and the snap-on case back is centred with the embossed Seamaster logo. Automatically wound, the watch is powered by the Omega calibre 501 with 20 jewels and precision regulation.
Tudor Oyster Royal Ref.7934 dated 1959
Made in 1959, this Tudor wristwatch has a rare and unusual, matte, light champagne dial with an engine-turned outer chapter ring for the raised Arabic numerals. The dial is in excellent original condition and the contrast between the engine-turned outer ring and the dial centre creates a two-tone finish; subtle colour variations between the sections are seen as light crosses the surface. The steel Rolex Oyster case has the classic screw-down crown and case back and a smooth polished bezel.
Longines Ref.1617 ‘Full Set’ lady’s sold 1979
Direct from the original owner’s family, this watch was originally purchased in 1979 and is complete with its original Longines box, guarantee booklet and receipt of sale from Blackwell Jewellers of St. Peter Port, Guernsey. In lovely condition, this watch has a bright silvered dial with vertical satin finish. The gold plated upper case has a satin sunburst finish with polished chamfers to the edges and a steel screw-down case back. Automatically wound, the watch is powered by Longines’ excellent calibre 561 movement which incorporates a hack feature and quick-set date mechanism.
Longines Flagship Ref.8634 circa 1972
This Longines wristwatch has a handsome blue/grey satin finished dial and contrasting applied baton indexes which have white inserts. The stainless steel case is satin finished throughout and has a slightly tonneau-form shape, with circular bezel and unusual linear lugs with flat recesses. The new blue strap is fitted with a satin finished Longines pin buckle. There is some light spotting to the dial and scuffing to the case.
Telda Cal. Venus 204 circa 1950
Bright and gleaming, this is a new/old stock Telda triple calendar wristwatch made in c.1950. A true time capsule, the watch appears almost exactly as it would have done when it left the Telda factory some 70 years ago. The days of the week and date automatically advance at midnight and the months require manual advancement at the start of each month via the pusher to the case side at the 2 o’clock position. Two further pushers at 4 o’clock and 10 o’clock respectively allow the quick manual advancement, if required, of the date and day.
Record Cal.022-18 hallmarked 1955 | Gold
In outstanding original condition, this Record wristwatch appears to have been little used and has a superb blemish free dial with strong two-toning and a wonderful lustre. The blued steel hands are rich and deep in tone and provide an excellent contrast to the dial’s surface. The 9ct yellow gold case retains excellent definition with a crisp chamfered bezel and gently down-turned lugs.
Founded in Tramelan, Switzerland, in 1903, The Record Watch Company moved its headquarters to Geneva in 1924. In 1961 a majority interest in the Record Watch Company was purchased by Longines.
Omega Genève Ref.136.0099 circa 1974
A classic steel Omega model, this wristwatch has a silvered satin finished dial and applied baton indexes which are centrally set with black inserts to increase legibility. The dial is in good condition with a small spot just beneath the numeral at 8 o’clock. Powered by the manually wound Omega calibre 1030, the movement has both a quick-set date feature and a hack feature; when the winding crown is pulled out to set the time, the centre seconds hand will stop, thereby allowing easy synchronisation.
