About the Item
This exceptionally rare Dunhill 18K gold watch lighter is a striking example of Art Deco luxury and engineering. Crafted entirely in solid 18K gold and weighing 117 grams, it combines two symbols of sophistication — a precision Swiss watch and a classic flint lighter — into one seamless and elegant design. The lighter retains its original mechanical movement, which remains in working order, and features a beautifully preserved gold dial signed by Dunhill.
The case showcases exquisite fluted detailing and engine-turned textures, hallmarks of Dunhill’s early 20th-century craftsmanship. Likely produced in the 1930s or 1940s, this piece is a rare surviving artifact from a golden era of bespoke gentleman’s accessories. Its weight, rarity, and functionality make it not only a luxurious statement piece but also a highly sought-after collectible for serious connoisseurs of vintage timepieces and objets d’art.
A museum-worthy treasure with undeniable presence and timeless appeal.
