Dunhill 18kt Rose Gold Book Hand Made in France for Dunhill, circa 1930's

About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Dunhill & Co. STYLE / REFERENCE: Art Deco Desk Watch METAL / MATERIAL: 18Kt Rose Gold and Leather CIRCA / YEAR: 1930's DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Length 28mm x Width 27mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding / 17 Jewels DIAL / HANDS: Original Silvered with Arabic Numerals / Blued Steel Hands WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This very unique and rare little gem was produced by the legendary English Gentleman's house of Dunhill. The piece is entirely hand made and was likely intended to sit on a desk. Dunhill had locations all over the world and I remember one being on Wilshire Blvd near Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills in the 1970's. It was just down the street from the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. I met the Dalai Lama at that hotel in 1979. He and I had brief quiet moment together. He likes to laugh, by the way.
