Description from the seller
Title
Revue Thommen "GT 1885" Small Seconds Hand-Wind Watch with Exhibition Case Back
Introduction
This Revue Thommen timepiece from the "GT 1885" line presents a classic round case with a gold-tone finish, paired with a white dial featuring applied Roman numerals and a small seconds subdial at the six o'clock position. The dial is signed "Revue Thommen" and marked "GT 1885" with "Swiss Made" printed near the base. The case features an exhibition back, allowing a partial view of the movement. The overall design reflects a traditional, dress-watch aesthetic typical of the brand's heritage models.
Historical & Collector Value
Revue Thommen is a Swiss watchmaking company with a history dating back to the late nineteenth century, and the brand has produced both mechanical and quartz movements across various eras. The "GT 1885" designation references the founding year of the company and is used across a range of models that draw on classic design elements such as Roman numeral dials and small seconds complications. This particular example, fitted with a hand-wound movement and an exhibition case back, is characteristic of the brand's approach to combining traditional aesthetics with visible mechanical construction.
