Waltham Yellow Gold Filled Mid Century Experimental Electromechanical Watch

About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Waltham Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: Round / Space Age Design METAL / MATERIAL: Yellow Gold Filled CIRCA: 1950's / 1960's DIMENSIONS: Length 44mm X Diameter 35mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Electromechanical / Battery Driven Balance Wheel / 17 Jewels DIAL / HANDS: Original Atomic / Gilt Dauphine Hands ATTACHMENT / LENGTH: Rust Alligator, 18mm / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement. LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This very rare watch is in exceptional condition. It is fitted with an experimental movement with a classic balance wheel escapement but powered by a battery. There is no mainspring driving this watch. This is only example of this watch I have ever seen. The dial has a rich patinated finish and is in nearly new condition. The watch appears never to have been used. It keeps excellent time and the batteries for it are still available. It has a great sports casual look and is very distinctive but still subtle.
