Vintage Waltham 10K Gold Plate Manual Wind Watch - 1940s

Description: Overview This vintage Waltham wristwatch is a fine example of American watchmaking from the 1940s. It features a 10K rolled gold plate case and a beautifully patinated dial, reflecting its rich history. However, the watch currently requires service or repair to restore its full functionality. Condition and Functionality Movement: The watch is not currently functioning. The crown allows for the adjustment of the hour and minute hands, but the movement does not run. A professional service, adjustment, or repair will be necessary to restore the watch to working order. Crown: The crown is in a slightly extended position relative to the case and remains stable when pulled further. It’s unclear whether this is due to the design or if the crown needs adjustment. Dial and Hands The dial has developed a unique patina over time, with large Arabic numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 o'clock. The hour and minute hands are leaf-shaped in a gold tone, and the second hand is in a contrasting blue. Case and Strap The 10K rolled gold plate case has visible wear and patina, consistent with the watch's age. The case back is marked "Keystone Victory 10K Rolled Gold Plate" with a serial number of 483107. The watch is fitted with an aged genuine leather strap that complements its vintage character.
