There is something captivating about a watch that blurs the line between timekeeping instrument and jewelry, and the Swiss-made ring watch showcased in today's offering does so with quiet sophistication and panache.
Crafted in solid 18K yellow gold, it reflects a mid-century moment when Swiss makers explored more intimate, personal forms of watchmaking - pieces designed not only to be worn, but also to be discovered. The result is a miniature mechanical watch seamlessly integrated into a ring, offering both elegance and ingenuity.
Even in such a compact form, it showcases Swiss watchmaking - precision engineering and thoughtful durability. Its Incabloc shock protection underscoring that it was not made as a novelty, but as a true mechanical Swiss watch built to perform.
The watch's aesthetic has a warm, cohesive presence. Its champagne dial with applied gold indices harmonizes well with the rich tone of the 18K case, while the faceted case design gives it subtle architectural interest. Its small proportions give it the feel of a true jewel - refined, personal, and quietly distinctive.
It is sized to approximately a 6.5, making it immediately wearable for many or easily adjustable if desired.
It is all-original down to the original retailer's box and in beautiful condition. It has never been polished, and it presents as just short of mint.
Its case is in excellent condition with only slight wear and a crisp hallmark. Please inquire if you would like it polished - it could present as close to mint.
Its champagne dial is original and untouched, in just short of perfect mint condition.
One of our Master Watchmakers has disassembled it down to its last screw and cleaned and oiled it. It is running strong and true, keeping very accurate time.
For the finishing touch, we have meticulously detailed it making it ready for immediate enjoyment.
Included with the purchase is a one-year international warranty on the movement and its function, a custom printed Connoisseur of Time Certificate of Authenticity, and even a new timing certificate attesting to the miniature watch's performance.
For the collector drawn to unusual and beautiful forms of vintage watchmaking, this is a piece that stands apart. It captures a time when Swiss craftsmanship extended beyond the wrist into more imaginative expressions; where even something as small as a ring could house a finely made mechanical watch.
Your watch is important to us, and we will take care of it for its lifetime. We provide the best after sale care in the business with an extremely experienced team of four Master Watchmakers all of whom each have over thirty-five years of experience and a large number of parts.
