Item Description
A "Services 17-Jewel Vintage Mechanical Wind-Up Swiss Made Watch (Classic British Style), Boxed" describes a traditional, hand-wound wristwatch from the brand Services, featuring 17 jewel bearings for smooth operation, Swiss-made quality, a timeless British aesthetic, and likely coming with its original packaging, indicating a desirable collectible often found on auction sites like eBay UK. Key aspects are the 17 jewels (standard for quality mechanicals), the Swiss manufacturing, the "Services" brand (a classic British name), and its vintage, boxed condition, suggesting it's a complete and potentially well-preserved piece. Key Features Explained: Services: A historical British watch brand known for producing reliable timepieces. 17-Jewel Movement: Indicates synthetic ruby bearings at critical friction points, a standard for quality manual-wind watches, ensuring durability and accuracy. Mechanical Wind-Up (Manual): Requires winding by hand daily to power the watch. Swiss Made: Signifies high-quality craftsmanship and movement, a hallmark of fine watchmaking. Vintage: Generally means the watch is at least 20-25 years old, often with unique character and design. Classic British Style: Suggests a traditional, possibly understated design, like a black dial or simple case, often seen in vintage British watches. Boxed: Comes with its original box, increasing its appeal and value to collectors. Where to Find Them: Online Marketplaces: eBay UK, Etsy, and other vintage watch dealers are excellent sources. In essence, you're looking at a well-preserved, classic, manually-wound mechanical watch with a notable brand and heritage, ready for a collector or enthusiast.
