Condition Report

Grade B – Good condition, with normal signs of wear and ageing.

The chrome-plated case displays scratches, surface marks and areas of plating loss, particularly around the sides, underside and lugs, exposing the underlying metal in places. The case back also shows surface scratches. The silver dial presents scattered spotting and age-related patina, with visible ageing on the hands and markers. Its distinctive faceted design remains clearly defined. The leather strap shows creasing and wear. Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an essential part of the condition description.

Water resistance has not been tested. Contact with water should therefore be avoided unless the watch is professionally pressure-tested and resealed.

Story & Heritage

A vintage watch can reveal its personality through a single well-chosen detail. In this Uno, that detail is the pie-pan dial: a central surface framed by an angular outer section that transforms a simple round watch into a study in geometry.

As light moves across the dial, the facets alternate between bright silver and darker reflections. The elongated markers follow these changes in angle, reinforcing the architectural effect while leaving the centre open and uncluttered.

At 6 o’clock, the small-seconds hand moves across a simple crosshair display. This restrained detail provides a quiet counterpoint to the more expressive outer dial, creating a balanced composition with the pointed hour and minute hands.

With its 34 mm case and black leather strap, the watch retains the understated proportions of a traditional vintage dress piece. Its mechanical movement, distinctive dial construction and visible patina make it an appealing choice for someone who appreciates watches with individual character and thoughtful design.
