- Are JW Benson watches valuable?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024Yes, some JW Benson watches are valuable. Select models made during the first two decades of the 20th century, particularly its trench watches that date back to World War I, may sell for thousands. However, other models are worth considerably less, though they may still have some value, as many JW Benson watches were silver and can therefore be sold for scrap. The potential selling price of a JW Benson timepiece depends on its style, age, materials, condition and other factors. A certified appraiser or experienced antique dealer can provide an expert valuation for any timepiece you own. On 1stDibs, explore a variety of JW Benson watches.
- 1stDibs ExpertNovember 22, 2024The history of JW Benson watches begins in 1855, when watchmaker J. W. Benson established a workshop in London. Within a decade, he was well-known throughout the city for his finely crafted watches and clocks. Following the founder's death in 1878, his sons, Alfred and Arthur, took over the company. Under their leadership, JW Benson unveiled a watch strap resistant to moisture and dust. It also received royal commendations from Queen Victoria, the Prince of Wales and the kings of both Denmark and Siam. During World War I, JW Benson contributed to the war effort by producing trench watches for soldiers. The business thrived during the following years, but its factory was bombed during World War II. JW Benson never resumed production of watches after the war but continued to run a shop on Bond Street, where it sold jewelry and timepieces crafted by other makers. This store closed in the 1980s when it was bought out by Mappin & Webb. On 1stDibs, explore a collection of JW Benson watches.
