Vintage Design
Very rare and old advertisement of the Swiss watchmaker “Certina”. The large advertisement is designed in the form of a wristwatch and is fully functional. The watch is not only interesting for all watch lovers, collectors of old advertisements should also be interested in it.
Certina watches are known for precision, reliability and a sporty character. In its 130 years of existence, the sports watch brand has built up a solid international reputation for the highest Swiss quality work
The dial of the watch is made of brushed stainless steel. The numbers, the hands and the company logo of “Certina” are made of brass. The convex original glass can be opened. The body is metal that has been bonzered. The bracelet stops are made of bronzed wood. The leather strap.
Behind the watch is the original mechanical movement from another Swiss watchmaker. In order to run it without the “mother clock” a part was added that drives the mechanics so that it is fully functional.
If you want to actually put the clock into operation, you have to know that the clock makes a very loud “Tik-Tak”. The back cover of the watch is missing.
