AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Cauny Prima Jumbo Antimagnetic – 16 Jewels – Small Seconds – 37.7 mm – Swiss Made – 1950s
Vintage Cauny Prima Swiss mechanical wristwatch from the 1950s, featuring an attractive finely textured silver dial, applied gold-tone hour markers and a subsidiary seconds register at 6 o’clock.
With a case diameter of approximately 37.7 mm excluding the crown, this is a generously sized vintage Cauny, giving it considerably more wrist presence than many dress watches of the period.

DIAL & DESIGN
* Original-style silver-tone dial with an elaborate radial textured finish
* Applied gold-tone Cauny signature
* Applied gold-tone baton hour markers
* Gold-tone dauphine-style hands
* Small seconds register at 6 o’clock
* “Antimagnetic” inscription
* “La Chaux-de-Fonds” inscription
* “Swiss Made” at 6 o’clock
* Attractive classic mid-century Swiss design
The dial shows some light age-related patina and small marks visible under close inspection, consistent with the vintage character of the watch. The textured finish remains particularly attractive and gives the dial considerable depth depending on the light.
---
MOVEMENT
* Swiss mechanical hand-wound movement
* Signed “Cauny Prima”
* 16 jewels
* Swiss made
