IAXA
All original, freshly serviced and working perfectly: a vintage Swiss Made IAXA pocket watch. This piece dates back to the 1980s based on its movement. The front features a white enamel dial with black Arabic numerals and Breguet style hands. A sub dial at the 6 O'Clock position counts down the seconds. The dial is in very good condition still: no chips or cracks can be found, and all lettering is still sharp and clear. A small speck just above the center is the only thing worth mentioning.
The watch is housed in a stainless steel hunter style pocket watch case measuring 48mm in diameter. The "hunter" case features a clamshell design with a spring-hinged cover that closes over the watch dial and crystal. Said lid effectively protects the watch from damage, scratches or dust, and is decorated with two horses surrounded by a horseshoe and flowers. The edges and back of the case are also decorated with a stunning flower pattern. Inside the watch sits a high quality Swiss Made ETA 6498 movement, which is still in production to this day. It is the same movement used in a number of larger high quality wristwatches, such as Longines, Hamilton and TAG Heuer.
The watch was lovingly restored with eye for authenticity. Its movement was completely disassembled, cleaned and lubricated, and is now working perfectly for years to come. The outside case has been cleaned entirely as well, but left unpolished to maintain its patina and originality. In all, a very well preserved and fully functional piece. Comes accompanied by its brown plastic IAXA branded box, making it a lovely gift set.
