Condition Report
This vintage DOXA is in Grade B+ condition, with visible signs of age and previous use consistent with a watch of this period.

The gold-plated case presents surface scratches, small marks and areas of wear to the plating, particularly around the case edges and lugs. These traces are clearly visible in the photographs and contribute to the authentic vintage character of the watch.

The champagne dial remains attractive and well balanced, showing light age-related patina and small marks visible under close inspection. The applied indexes, hands and day-date display remain clear and highly legible.
The stainless-steel case back shows scratches and marks from previous use and opening. The watch is fitted with a brown leather strap.

Water resistance has not been tested and is therefore not guaranteed.

Story & Heritage
Founded in 1889, DOXA is a historic Swiss watch manufacturer with a long tradition of producing reliable mechanical timepieces. While the brand later became particularly famous for its professional diving watches, DOXA also produced an extensive range of elegant automatic wristwatches for everyday use.

This Day-Date model captures the distinctive design language of the 1970s: a generously proportioned case, warm gold-plated finish, champagne sunburst dial and practical calendar complication. The combination creates a watch that feels unmistakably vintage while remaining elegant and wearable today.

The 17-jewel Swiss automatic movement, together with the Incabloc shock-protection system and day-date complication, reflects the practical mechanical watchmaking of its era — designed as an everyday timepiece rather than simply a decorative accessory.

With its period-correct aesthetic, mechanical automatic movement and recognizable DOXA heritage, this is an appealing vintage piece for collectors of classic Swiss watches and distinctive 1970s design.
