The R W trademark belongs to Rodi & Weinenberger, Pforzheim. They were not watchmakers. They were more into watch bracelets. Anybody who has a ‘50s era Fix-O-Flex bracelet (not one of the myriad copy cat look alikes) will find the R W logo on the back of their bracelet. The movement is a bog stock A Schild 1538. The Rallye name doesn’t show up on Mikrolisk. One of millions of generic watches with unrecognizeable names, built of off the shelf components, but probably a very serviceable, reliable timepiece, likely from the 1950s.

Thanks for the background info. IMHO its a handsome clean design....keeps very good time....just a nice casual piece. Thanks again, cheers!

Hummng along with this Logines Ultronic from 1971, almost on trend what with all the recent upswing in integrated bracelet releases.

At $ 105.00, these were a pretty penny indeed. Simply marvellous tools that were essential to keeping the railways safe. This is such an incredible example.
