This Wittnauer 2824-11k, produced in approx. the 1970s, represents a pivotal period in the brand's history. Founded in 1885 by Albert Wittnauer, the company had established itself as a respected American watch manufacturer by the mid-20th century.
Design and Construction
This Wittnauer features a unique construction with a rolled gold-plated (R.G.P.) bezel and a stainless steel case back. The case measures approximately 32mm in diameter with a lug-to-lug length of 39mm. The case of this piece is in immaculate condition throughout.
Movement
This Wittnauer holds a manual-wind caliber 54, featuring 17 jewels. The "AXA" designation on the movement is Wittnauer's U.S. import code, confirming its authenticity and origin. This movement choice demonstrates Wittnauer's continued reliance on reliable Swiss mechanics during a period of significant change in the watch industry. The movement in this Wittnauer runs well at the time of listing, but has not been bench tested for precise accuracy.
Signature Features
The tapered lugs of this Wittnauer accentuate the circular gold case, giving it an almost floating aesthetic. Perfectly balancing it for formal wear in its modest case size.
Dial and Aesthetics
The engaging black numbered hour markers stand out across the silvered dial of this piece. Taking up the space for the 6 o'clock marker sits a sub-seconds dial, adding visual interest and functionality to the overall design.
Strap and Wearability
This Wittnauer comes fitted with a handcrafted brown alligator grain strap measuring approximately 7.25 inches (not including watch head).
