·Very cool display
Some reading,
what a picture! Three grails... Hard decision to choose one, but probably Breitling is my favorite.
01.0150.415 A3822 like old stock,my new watch!
A vintage from the 30s 😀
New Old Stock condition with its original jeweller's box and gold buckle!
no Zenith at the top, must have made so retailer could put their name in that space. What movement does it have?
Movement is a 10.5 NSI.
The original box indicates that the watch was sold by a jeweller located in Preston called "Whittles".
According to this blogpost (https://www.blogpreston.co.uk/2015/04/nostalgic-1980s-preston-revealed-in-pictures-final-part-10/), it seems like they moved out of Preston sometime in the 1980s.
nice!!
Is the bezel the original in Bakelite? Or aluminum?
If Bakelite, it is awesome condition.
