Waltham Sea Lion W - Complete Set
Waltham Sea Lion W - Complete Set
**THIS IS A COMPLETE SET, NEW OLD STOCK -- JUST AS IT WAS IN THE JEWELRY STORE 50+ YEARS AGO!**
It's often hard enough to find watches with their original boxes, as most owners tossed them out over the years with little regard. Running across desirable watches that are a NOS (new old stock) complete set is at least comparable to a needle in a haystack.
You're looking at a beautiful Waltham rarity, with unworn watch, outer cardboard box, inner hard case, guarantee booklet, watch tag, and box tags that a jeweler would have arranged for display all those decades ago.
The watch is running fantastic, providing a crystal clear view of the (vinyl) record patterned dial below the gorgeous dauphine hands and Waltham's well-known red arrow second hand.
If you've ever wished you could go back in time and purchase a vintage watch from new -- this is as close as it gets!

[All vintage watches are expected to function as described. However, due to age and generally unknown service history (unless otherwise stated), these watches may not keep time as accurately as new or quartz (battery) watches. This is completely normal and does not indicate that there is a major problem. Like your automobile, all mechanical watches will likely need to be serviced at some point in time. Please keep this in mind, as there is no guarantee regarding when these vintage watches may need standard maintenance. Every watch sold by Buying On Time is done so with the expectation that it is not currently in need of service or repair, unless noted. We guarantee that all watches sold are accurately described and in the stated condition when they leave our hands.]
