About the Item

Circa 1933 Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Wrist Watch, This watch belonged to American Artist and Sculptor Ernest Trova ( 1927-2009 ) I had the pleasure of knowing Mr. Trova in the Early 1990s, we shared the same interest in vintage Disney Character Timepieces, this being one of many i had purchased from him and kept in my collection. This is the Watch that started it all, an incredible success in Marketing and a big money maker for both Disney and Ingersoll. over 2.5 Million were produced between 1933 to 1937.

The bracelet features raised Mickey Figures with Black enamel accents. Total length 7 inches. Very good to excellent condition. Recently overhauled and is Running.
