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.

Specifications
– Brand: Revue Thommen
– Model: GT 1885
– Movement: Manual winding (hand-wind)
– Case Material: Gold-tone case
– Case Size: 34mm
– Dial: White dial with Roman numerals and small seconds subdial
– Functions: Small seconds, exhibition case back
– Bracelet or Strap: Original leather strap

Condition
The watch has been graded "Very Good" by the seller, which for a pre-owned vintage piece indicates generally sound condition rather than mint or new condition. As a pre-owned vintage watch, it shows signs of age and use consistent with its era. The strap is the original leather band supplied with the watch and shows visible signs of wear from use. The dial appears clean for a vintage piece of its age, and the case retains its overall shape and detailing. The watch has been tested and is in working condition. Please refer to the photographs for further details on the exterior condition.

Important Notes
This is a vintage watch.
Minor signs of age and use should be expected.
Please review all photographs carefully, as they form part of the description.

Shipping & Customs
The item will be carefully packed and shipped with tracking from Japan.
Since the item will be shipped from Japan, customs duties may apply upon arrival.
