The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner cover which has some scratching.
The watch measures 47mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel and it is in good condition. Both the inside and the outside of the hinged case back are signed Wanderer.
The acrylic lens is in good condition.
The dial is signed Neva, a brand name registered by several companies, but this is likely to be Irénée Aubry who registered the name in 1903. The dial has several hairlines but they are faint. Blued steel hands.
The watch comes with a single chain, 34cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.
The watch and chain come in a new presentation box.
All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
