Description: 1940s Men's Benrus Manual Wind Watch This is a very nice men's Benrus manual wind watch, made in Switzerland sometime during the 1940s. The 17 jewel Model AR15 movement has been cleaned and oiled, and the watch is running well and keeping accurate time. The dial is in very good condition for its age - there are a few small scratches and standard patina throughout. The cool looking 14k R.G.P. (Rolled Gold Plated) case with ridged lug tops has been cleaned and polished, and shows only minor surface scratches from past use and minor gold loss on the hard edges of the bezel and lug bottoms. A brand new acrylic crystal has been installed. A brand new Kreisler brand brown lizard calf strap has been installed. Overall, the watch is in very good condition and ready to wear! Please see pictures for more details, and feel free to ask any questions prior to purchase. Please keep in mind that it takes a lot of my time, money, and knowledge to get these watches in reliable, running order and to make them look the best they can. I believe I am listing each watch at a fair market value -- I take the time to do a lot of research, and frequently check the "going rate" for watches that are similar to what I am offering, and adjust according to condition. As a result, I do not accept offers. Thank you for your understanding. I do combine shipping -- all items purchased at the same time will be shipped together in one box for a flat $6.00 fee. Simply add the items you wish to purchase to your cart, and when you check out, you should see one $6.00 flat shipping charge. Send me a message if for any reason you see shipping charges greater than $6.00 so that I can send you a refund of the excess.
