Vintage ladies' watches.
Ladies' vintage watches represent some of the most beautiful objects in the collector market, with fine dials, jewelled movements, and a refinement of detail rarely seen in modern production. Our collection includes Swiss dress watches, fashion-forward 1980s and 1990s pieces from houses such as Gucci and Raymond Weil, and quietly elegant everyday pieces. Every watch has been carefully vetted and is ready to wear.

Frequently asked questions
Are vintage ladies' watches reliable enough for daily wear?
Generally yes, though it depends on the movement and when it was last serviced. Quartz pieces from the 1980s onwards tend to need nothing more than a battery. Older mechanical watches run well when they have been looked after, and an occasional service keeps them that way. We test every watch before it is listed and describe how it is running.
How small is too small?
That is a matter of taste rather than a rule. Cases in this collection mostly run between 18mm and 26mm, and the listing states the size for each one. If you are unsure how a particular case will look, measure across your own wrist and compare, or ask us and we will tell you how it sits in the hand.
Can the bracelet be resized?
Usually. Most integrated bracelets and bangles can be adjusted by removing links, and we can tell you how much adjustment a specific watch allows before you buy. Where a bangle is a fixed size, we say so in the listing.
Do the watches come with a box?
Some do and some do not, and the listing says which. Where original boxes or papers survive we photograph and describe them; where they do not, the watch is despatched in our own packaging, fully insured.
