Nivada
For sale is a Swiss Made Nivada "Compensamatic" men's watch with reference number 5139, presumably dating back to the mid 1970s. Nivada was founded in the late 1800s, and released numerous highly regarded watches before succumbing to the quartz crisis. This specific Nivada "Compensamatic" watch features an intriguingly shaped rounded rectangular case design with beefy lugs and an outer diameter of around 36mm. The dial on this particular example comes in a vertically brushed silver tone with long raised black/polished steel indices. Stick shaped polished steel hands with black and lumed inlay indicate the time, and a date window can be found at 3 O'clock. The crown is original and features the Nivada "N" logo. Inside the watch beats a highly regarded ETA 2783 automatic movement with signed "Nivada" rotor. The movement was entirely disassembled, cleaned and lubricated, and is accurately keeping time. The watch comes fitted to a brand new dark brown perforated leather strap with generic stainless steel buckle.
The example sold here has been worn throughout its life, which is evident by quite a bit of wear marks to its case. The case is unpolished and therefore in original shape. The dial has developed some staining over the years. The crystal is brand new, and a perfect fit. The crown is original, as mentioned before. Please study the pictures in this listing well: they show the watch in the condition that it is in, with no digital enhancements to make it look better than it is. We are sure that you like honesty, and so do we. Functionally, the watch has been freshly serviced with eye for authenticity, and is working perfectly. Comes as a watch only: sadly no original box or paperwork are accompanying this piece.
Your new timepiece will be packaged with great care, and will be shipped out as fast as possible. We usually ship the same day your payment comes in, and provide full insurance as well as a tracking code for all of our packages. If you have any questions regarding the item or our services, please do not hesitate to reach out. We'll gladly assist as soon as we get the chance.
