1910s BUREN Gents WW1 Trench Sterling Silver Swiss Watch
Buren
empressissi™ is pleased to offer this very rare and most impressive BUREN Swiss watch for men from the first world war period in classic trench style.
This watch houses a rare, robust BUREN Grand-Prix caliber running on 15 jewels in manual wind. This strong movement is cased in a Swiss hallmarked Sterling silver case in great cushion shape with fixed lugs and is relatively large for a vintage watch, with a mint low dome crystal and a good crown.
The dial is factory original white porcelain enamel in great shape and has an original 'Art Deco' military numerals and and original set of skeleton hands. The numerals and hands were professionally restored with Super-Luminova instead of the hazardous original Radium material and are glowing gently in the dark.
This unique BUREN watch measures 31,5mm side to side (excluding crown) and 38mm from top lug to bottom lug.
Attached to this watch is a standard length brand new old stock, trench military style, genuine leather band in black tone with matching buckle.
