Story & Heritage This Modina Extra represents the elegance and simplicity of classic Swiss watchmaking from an era when mechanical wristwatches were built as daily companions. The “Ancre 17 Rubis” inscription refers to the traditional jeweled lever movement construction, a hallmark of reliable Swiss mechanical watch production. The 37 mm case is especially attractive for a vintage piece, offering a larger wrist presence than many watches from the same period. Combined with the guilloché-style centre, small seconds at 6 o’clock and warm gold tone, the watch has a refined dress-watch personality with plenty of old-world charm. Its aged dial is one of the most appealing elements of this example. Rather than hiding its history, the natural patina gives the watch depth, character and individuality — the kind of detail collectors appreciate in honest vintage pieces. The watch will be carefully packed and shipped insured. Internal Reference Number - ITA 81
