We love 60s & 70’s Jump Hour Watches, they are so much fun to wear, this is a 1970’s Nivada Automatic Gents Jump Hour on integral steel bracelet, it’s a really cool looking watch #nivadawatch #nivadawatches #jumphourwatch #jumphourwatches #vintagewatch #vintagewatches #menswatch #menswatches
Divers Watches, they look so good, this one from the 1970’s is from Vulcain, we wouldn’t recommend you take this in the bathroom never mind diving with it, however as most divers watches are bought for their looks that’s ok then ! And this is pretty good looking ! #vulcainwatch #vulcainwatches
A Watch doesn’t have to be expensive to look good, case in point this 1960 Bulova President Asymetric shaped Gents Dress Watch, good design is totally subjective but this watch is awesome ! #bulovawatch #bulovawatches #vintagewatch #vintagewatches #menswatch #menswatches
This is a Watch sort of, its calibrated to tell time to one fifths of a second, but it’s not a conventional Wrist Watch, it’s a WW2 Official Ordnance Pierce Military Mono Pusher Stopwatch it was used by Bomb Aimers in the RAF and Artillery Officers, fairly rare especially in good working order.
A rather unique looking watch, this dates from 1952 this is a Gruen 21 Barclay Gents Dress Watch better known as The Spider because of its web like design, it’s a pretty amazing looking watch #gruenwatch #gruenwatches #vintagewatch #vintagewatches #menswatch #menswatches
This is an 18ct Yellow Gold cased Chronographe Suisse Gents Jumbo Chronograph with a Venus movement, during the 1950’s Tourists would find these watches under a veritable battery of different brand names and movements, they could be found in tourist and duty free shops, very collectible now.
We just don’t get it why some quality watch brands are so popular whilst others just don’t get the recognition they deserve, Girard Perregaux one of the worlds oldest watch brands, make fabulous watches yet don’t get much kudos, here’s an example 1950’s Girard Perregaux Automatic

Let us introduce you to a watch that’s a bit unusual, it’s a Clinton Perpetua Gents Watch and dates from the 1970’s, it’s an automatic, it’s an alarm Watch and it features a perpetual calendar, it doesn’t sing or dance but it’s attempting to be a horological equivalent of a Swiss Army knife !
This dates to 1960, it’s a Gents Girard Perregaux Gyromatic Dress Watch, known as one of the first automatic watches to feature 39 jewels, it’s high grade movement utilised roller ball bearings made of rubies rather than metal to drastically reduce friction and improve winding efficiency, phew !

From the late 1940’s this something of a rarity, a gents dress watch made by Waltham it’s a design that is a dead ringer for the then recently launched Longines Mainliner Dress Watch, however although they may have ‘borrowed’ the overall design the dial is very cool. #walthamwatch #walthamwatches

OK, something American from the late 1940’s and very very unusual, possibly a jeweller made this as a commission using a Bulova Watch , but with a red, green and yellow gold filled case it’s definitely not a standard production model, but it’s also absolutely gorgeous ! #bulovawatch
