Description from the seller
Certina Bristol 290 – 1968 – Hand‑Wound Cal. 28‑10 – Stainless Steel – Swiss Made
This Certina Bristol 290 from 1968 is an elegant Swiss Made dress watch with the hand-wound movement Cal. 28‑10. This model is part of Certina's classic Bristol line and is known for its clean design, reliable mechanism, and timeless appeal.
The dial is in excellent vintage condition, with sharp indices, original typography, and the classic SWISS MADE marking at the bottom of the dial. The silvery sunburst finish gives an elegant luster that is characteristic of Certina dress watches from the 1960s.
The stainless-steel case has been well preserved and shows a light vintage patina appropriate to its age. The photos show clear details of the case, lugs, crown, and bracelet, including an overview photo that emphasizes the sleek wearability of this model.
The hand-wound movement Cal. 28-10 runs well and is known for its sturdy construction and reliable performance. The serial number dating this piece places it in 1968, a period when Certina was building a strong reputation with their Bristol line. The caseback bears the original factory engraving:
