Just serviced and overhauled - A lovely example of a 1940s Bravingtons Renown, silver/champagne dial Gentleman's watch. Bravingtons were a jewellers and goldsmiths that retailed Swiss Made watches, designed to their specification. The two tone dial, with Arabic numerals were very fashionable in this period. It has a black signing to the dial, and numerals, with an inset sub-second dial.

The 32mm case is chrome plated brass, which is in reasonably good condition . The movement is a good quality Bravingtons calibre 1200 movement, with 15 jewels.

Bravingtons had several branches in London . They retailed jewellery, watches and clocks.

They sold Swiss made watches under their own name, with the Renown model being their most successful range. They also sold de-commissioned British military watches to civilians, post WW2. Bravingtons were widely seen as a main source of watches for young conscripts of modest means during WW2.
