Description: VINTAGE WALTHAM c1950'S DRAMATIC BATWING LUG MANUAL SUBSECOND 17J WATCH~RUNNING. Item Is Pre-Owned; Item Is Sold "AS IS"; Shipped USPS GROUND ADVANTAGE. Offered for auction is this dramatically styled circa 1940's to 1950's ribbed batwing extended lug wristwatch. Measuring an impressive 38mm in length and 30mm wide excluding the crown, this timepiece will generate stares and favorable comments wherever it is worn. The 10k gold filled case is in very good condition with less than the expected fine surface scratches one would expect of a watch of this vintage. Although there are surface scuffs on the crystal, the view of the clean white dial with golden arrow and Arabic hour numbers and black outer minuets track is unobstructed. The caliber 1155, 17j manual movement currently winds, sets and keeps some semblance of time; however, unerring accuracy is not guaranteed, nor should it be expected. If optimal timekeeping is desired, a cleaning and adjustment is recommended. Fitted is a gold plated band in very good condition. Please review all the pictures as they represent far more accurately the items condition than any verbal description that I can provide. In those situations where you are uncertain or unsure, ask questions, before bidding. Don't assume. Asking questions will ensure that you receive what you expect. Most if not all of the horological items which I present for auction are from watchmakers' estates which have been in storage for a number of years. Consequently, I have no details as to their prior history nor can I offer any information other than what has been gleaned from cursory observation. Now for the boring stuff: Please study the photographs closely as they are considered part of the description. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me prior to bidding. There are no refunds. I do not accept returns because you thought that it was something different, or you changed your mind. All items are deemed sold "AS IS" unless there is a material error in the description. In that rare event, an item may be returned for a full refund, minus shipping cost, if applicable. We do not offer, nor give partial refunds. The item must be returned in the same condition and with the same packaging and paperwork, if any, with which it was sent. Payment is due within three days of auction end unless you have contacted us prior to make alternate arrangements. Payments not received within four days will be reported to eBay as a non-payment. Your bid will thereafter be cancelled and the item relisted. International Bidders are Welcomed.
