Title: One of a Kind Long Curved Antique 14k Yellow Gold Doctor's Watch Serviced Description: NEARMINT condition. This is one of the finest "tank" shaped watches I have ever owned or seen. It is early, probably 1930's. It is very long at 45 mm. It is a split dial or dual dial watch. It is in near perfect condition with the original brushed sides and original glass crystal. The crown looks like a replacement and the dial has definitely been refinished some time ago. Finally, this is no lightweight case. It is thick and hefty with over 20 grams of 14k gold, not including the movement. The watchmaker stated that he had not seen a back as thick and heavy as this. There are no markings except .585 (14k percentage mark). Doctor watches are very expensive with gold filled models selling for similar prices (Hamilton Sekron, Gruen Doctors etc). It has an old hand wound Swiss made Fontainemelon Caliber 53 and it has been fully serviced, oiled and timed. It carries a new old stock lizard strap but I like this piece so much I have been wearing it some so the strap shows some mild wear. Measures 23 mm wide (not including the crown) x 45 mm long x 10 mm thick. {$1350} Item #4138 SOLD MS
