Rarity! Beautiful Steel Nacar Military Watch from the 1960s – AS 1130 “Wehrmachtswerk” Movement A collectible yet perfectly wearable full steel Nacar military wristwatch from the 1960–1970 period, powered by the reliable AS 1130 manual winding movement. The watch comes with a nice fabric strap that perfectly complements its authentic military character. Nacar is a Swiss-origin watch brand founded in the 1920s, known primarily for producing reliable mid-range mechanical wristwatches. While it did not belong to the luxury segment like Rolex or Omega, the company offered quality “Swiss Made” timepieces at more accessible prices. The brand reached its peak during the 1950s–1970s, when its elegant manual and automatic models became particularly popular across Europe and the Middle East. Like many traditional Swiss manufacturers, Nacar faced challenges during the quartz revolution of the 1970s, but its earlier mechanical watches are now appreciated as desirable vintage pieces. Inside the watch beats the legendary AS 1130 movement, produced by A. Schild SA from the late 1930s. This hand-wound caliber was designed to be simple, durable, and easy to service for everyday use, but it also gained historical significance during World War II when many Swiss brands used it in military watches. Due to its reliability and robustness, collectors later nicknamed it “Wehrmachtswerk.” The movement features a small seconds subdial at the lower part of the dial and 17 jewels, ensuring longevity and solid timekeeping performance. Its straightforward yet sturdy construction made it a favorite among watchmakers for maintenance and restoration. This example features a beautiful military-style dial with clear indexes and attractive luminous hands. The solid steel case is fitted with a screw-down steel caseback, ensuring durability and stability. The movement is running and performing its function properly. Case size: 35 mm measured without the crown, a well-balanced and classic size for watches of this era. Swiss Made. A rare and highly collectible military timepiece with authentic vintage character.
