Description

A charming vintage Swiss Certina wristwatch with a distinctive military-inspired design, dating from the 1940s. The year 1944 is engraved on the case back and is retained as the stated date for this listing.

The watch features a striking black two-tone dial with large Arabic numerals, a contrasting central section and a railway-style minute track around the perimeter. The aged cream-coloured numerals and luminous-style hands give the watch an authentic vintage military aesthetic. A small seconds sub-dial at 6 o’clock completes the classic utilitarian layout.

The watch is powered by a Swiss-made Certina calibre 300 mechanical movement with manual winding and 15 jewels. This traditional movement represents the straightforward, practical engineering of mid-century Swiss watchmaking. The movement is signed Certina, Swiss Made and 300.

The compact 29 mm case, prominent crown and highly legible dial evoke the functional design of military-style watches from the Second World War era. The case back is marked “Fond Acier Inoxydable” and bears the number 421446, together with the personal engraving “Börje 1944”.

The watch has just undergone a watchmaker’s service and is fitted with a new black NATO-style textile strap, which complements its rugged vintage character.

The case shows visible wear and loss of plating consistent with its age. The dial retains its aged appearance, adding to the character of this historic-looking timepiece.

A distinctive vintage Swiss watch for collectors of military-style timepieces, classic mechanical movements and mid-century design.
