This estate-found dealer lot features a pair of classic gold-tone men’s vintage wristwatches. The collection beautifully pairs traditional 1960s Swiss manual-wind mechanics with reliable 1980s Swiss-component quartz precision. Both timepieces come equipped with vintage gold-tone expansion stretch bracelets.
Included Timepieces:
Vintage MF Cortina 17 Jewels Watch: A handsome retro dress watch featuring a round gold-plated bezel. The silvered sunburst dial showcases applied golden index markers, thin stick hands, a date calendar window at the 3 o’clock position, and is signed “MF CORTINA”, “17 JEWELS”, “INCABLOC”, and “SWISS MADE”. The stainless steel screw-down back carries deep factory markings: “ANTIMAGNETIC – INCABLOC – WATERPROOF – SWISS MADE – STAINLESS STEEL BACK”, with the inner center stamped “BEZEL BASE METAL 10 MICRONS P”.
Vintage Bulova Quartz Day-Date Watch: A sleek, octagonal tonneau-cased analog timepiece. The brushed gold dial features an integrated day-and-date indicator at the 3 o’clock mark, thin gold hour indices, and is marked “BULOVA”, “QUARTZ”, and “SWISS 7184” at the base. The polished case back is stamped “BULOVA”, “BASE METAL BEZEL”, and “STAINLESS STEEL BACK”, with an arrow indicator reading “CROWN”.
Movement Types: Includes one manual-wind mechanical movement (Cortina) and one battery-operated quartz movement (Bulova).
Bands: Both watches are mounted on period-correct gold-tone expansion stretch bracelets. The Cortina band is a premium vintage piece stamped on the inner attachment link with “SPEIDEL – A TEXTRON COMPANY”.
Condition: Great vintage estate condition. Both watches display honest, age-appropriate character wear. The Bulova watch dial crystal shows a few light surface hairlines, and its case exhibits authentic edge pocket wear and plating thinness. The Cortina watch crystal is beautifully clear, and its 10-micron gold plating maintains an excellent bright luster with only micro-scratches on the steel backing from storage.
