Premier Extra – “Time Capsule” New Old Stock (NOS) – Swiss Workshop Find - unworn This is one of those rare, almost unreal watch stories that collectors chase for years and usually only hear about second-hand. These Premier Extra watches come from a true New Old Stock, time-capsule discovery: pieces that were produced in Switzerland, fully completed, and then never released to retail. Instead of being sold, they were kept aside and stored away—locked in a Swiss watchmaker’s workshop, untouched, protected, and forgotten for decades. I was fortunate enough to acquire two examples from this hidden stash: Ivory dial Both were essentially “first-wear” watches—as if you’re the very first owner, opening a sealed chapter of Swiss watchmaking history. No polishing, no restoration, no “clean-up”: just original factory finish and honest, untouched surfaces. Condition & authenticity highlights Absolute flawless NOS condition – truly mint, untouched, like it just left the bench yesterday Complete, fully working watch – assembled, ready to wear, and functioning as intended Original dust cover included – a rare detail that underlines the workshop provenance Hidden gem from Switzerland – not a mass retail piece, but a quietly stored treasure Brand: Premier Model / Type: Extra (as printed on dial) Period: Vintage (exact year unknown) Movement: Mechanical hand-wound (manual) Jewels: 17 rubies (marked “ANCRE 17 RUBIS”) Bronze werk Shock protection: Incabloc (marked) Features: Small seconds at 6 o’clock, antimagnetic (marked “ANTIMAGNETIC”) Dial: Two-tone / textured dial with applied Arabic numerals and dot minute track, “Swiss Made” at 6 Case: Metal case with stainless steel caseback (caseback marked “FOND ACIER INOXYDABLE / SWISS MADE”) Crown: Gold-tone crown Crystal: Not specified (likely acrylic on watches of this era) Strap: Black leather strap (NEW - unworn- unbranded) Included: Watch + original dust cover (no retail box/papers, as these were never sold through standard retail channels).
