1930s Ralco Pocket Watch and Chain

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The watch measures 46mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is chrome plated and has light surface scratching from use but overall it is in nice condition for a 1930s piece. The acrylic lens is in nice condition. The dial is signed Ralco, a brand name registered by Compagnie Generale d'Exportation Ralco of La Chaux-de-Fonds in May 1920. The dial is in lovely condition and has its original blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track. The watch comes with a single chain 35cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. The watch and chain come in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage.
