With limited information on the Extra brand, we believe this timepiece to have been produced in approximately the mid-20th Century.
Design and Construction
This Extra features a robust steel case measuring approximately 36mm in diameter, with a lug-to-lug length of about 45mm.
Movement
At the heart of this timepiece beats the manual-wind A. Schild (AS) 1130 caliber. The AS 1130 was a popular movement in the 1940s-1950's, known for its reliability and accuracy. While the dial states 17 jewels, the movement itself is noted to have 21 rubies. The movement in this Extra runs well at the time of listing, but has not been bench tested for precise accuracy.
Signature Features
This piece features a distinctive beveled bezel, which adds depth and character to the watch's profile. The angled edges of the bezel catches light dynamically, creating an eye-catching interplay of shadows and reflections that enhances the watch's overall presence. Complementing this architectural element are the striking arrow-head style hour markers. These bold indices not only provide excellent legibility but also lend a touch of mid-century modern design to the dial.
Dial and Aesthetics
The watch features a white dial that has developed a subtle, consistent patina over time. This gentle aging process has imparted a warm, slightly creamy hue to the originally stark white surface. At the 6 o'clock position, this timepiece features a distinctive sub-seconds dial. This small, circular complication adds both visual interest and functional precision to the watch face.
Strap and Wearability
This Extra comes fitted with a genuine leather strap measuring approximately 8 inches (not including watch head).
