Doxa - Chronometer - Jumbo Case - No reserve price - Men - 1900-1949

Doxa Chronometer Jumbo Case – NOS / Unworn – Vintage Swiss Dress Watch – 38 mm Offered for auction is a remarkable and increasingly rare Doxa Chronometer Jumbo Case, a highly desirable vintage Swiss dress watch preserved in exceptional unworn collector-grade condition. This piece stands out immediately thanks to its impressive 38 mm oversized jumbo case, an extraordinary size for a vintage dress watch of this era and highly sought-after by collectors today. Combined with its beautifully clean silver dial and elegant blued hands, the watch delivers exceptional wrist presence while preserving classic mid-century Swiss refinement. The dial design is beautifully balanced, featuring applied Arabic numerals, subtle minute track details, and elegant blued steel hands that create superb contrast against the silver background. The “Anti-Magnetic” signature further highlights the technical ambition of the period. A particularly attractive feature is its New Old Stock / unworn condition, still fitted with what appears to be its original leather strap and original Doxa hang tag—details rarely found together on watches of this age. Delivered with generic box. Technical Details Brand: Doxa Model: Chronometer Jumbo Case Movement: Swiss Mechanical Doxa Movement Case Material: Chromed Case Case Diameter: 38 mm Case Style: Jumbo / Oversized Crystal: Acrylic Glass Dial: Original Silver Dial with Arabic Numerals Strap: Original Leather Strap Wrist Size: Fits up to approx. 20 cm wrist Water Resistance: Untested Functions - Hours - Minutes - Central Seconds Condition Report The watch is offered in exceptional Grade A+ condition (Unworn / Collector Grade). The oversized chromed case remains in outstanding condition with extremely minimal signs of storage wear. The case proportions remain sharp and highly attractive. The silver dial is beautifully preserved, clean and highly legible, showing remarkable originality. The acrylic crystal remains in very good condition with only minimal storage traces if any. The original leather strap is preserved in excellent condition and contributes significantly to the collector appeal of the watch. The presence of the original Doxa hang tag further reinforces the rarity and originality of this piece. Overall, this is a highly preserved collector-grade example. Please review all photos carefully, as they form part of the description and represent the exact condition of the watch. Story & Heritage Founded in 1889, Doxa earned its reputation as one of Switzerland’s most respected watchmakers by producing reliable, innovative, and beautifully engineered timepieces. While many collectors know Doxa for its legendary dive watches, the brand’s vintage dress watches are equally fascinating and increasingly appreciated. During the golden era of Swiss mechanical watchmaking, Doxa produced elegant dress models with strong emphasis on precision, durability, and clean design. Oversized cases from this period are especially rare, as most dress watches were significantly smaller. This makes this Doxa Chronometer Jumbo Case particularly special. Its unusually large 38 mm case gives it modern wrist presence while maintaining authentic vintage character. Combined with the untouched dial, elegant blued hands, and unworn condition, this watch offers a rare opportunity to own a truly exceptional example of vintage Swiss watchmaking. Finding such a well-preserved oversized Doxa today is increasingly difficult. A beautiful collector’s piece and a rare opportunity for enthusiasts of fine vintage Swiss watches.
