With its deep black dial, elegant gilt Arabic numerals and original details intact, it is a rare survivor that speaks to Doxa’s reputation for precision, durability and understated elegance. Technical Details • Brand: Doxa • Era: 1950s • Movement: Swiss mechanical movement • Functions: Hours, minutes, central seconds • Case Material: Stainless steel • Case Diameter: 38 mm (jumbo size for the period) • Crystal: Acrylic (original style) • Dial: Black dial with gilt Arabic numerals and minute track • Anti-Magnetic: Yes (as marked on the dial) • Water Resistance: Untested (vintage timepiece) • Strap: Original leather strap • Wrist Fit: Up to approx. 21 cm • Condition: Grade A+ – unworn; any minor marks, if present, are from careful handling over the decades • Box: Generic presentation box Story & Heritage Founded in 1889, Doxa earned international recognition for producing robust, legible and technically reliable watches long before becoming famous for its professional dive instruments. In the 1950s, Doxa focused on elegant yet highly functional mechanical watches designed for daily reliability, often featuring anti-magnetic protection—an important innovation at the time. This particular example is especially noteworthy due to its large 38 mm case, which was exceptionally bold for the era, offering superior legibility and wrist presence decades ahead of its time. The glossy black dial is beautifully contrasted by warm gilt numerals and hands, reflecting classic mid-century design language. The finely printed outer minute track and “Anti-Magnetic” signature underline its technical intent and authenticity. The case back retains its original factory protective lacquer, a rare detail that strongly supports the unworn A+ condition of the watch. This preservation level is seldom encountered in watches of this age and makes this piece particularly attractive to collectors seeking originality over restoration. Elegant, honest and historically significant, this 1950s Doxa is not only a beautifully designed vintage watch but also a tangible example of Swiss watchmaking excellence from a formative era—ideal for collectors who value originality, rarity and timeless design.
