Pocket Watch: 1920s Duracy Pocket Watch

The watch has a stem winding movement, manufactured in the US, which is working well. The movement is signed Duracy, a brand name registered in 1921 by the London based Marc Holland. The watches would have been imported from the US to be branded with the Duracy name in preparation for onward wholesale. The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the stem. The case is gold plated and is the Empress model made by the American Watch Case Company. The case has light surface marking from use and a hint of unevenness to the back but overall it is in nice condition. The glass lens is in nice condition. The signed dial is in good condition and it has its original blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland). Please contact us before placing international orders so that we can advise of shipping prices and to see if customs regulations allow us to post watches to your country. The international buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and taxes. All of our watches are checked over before listing and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
