Look at this very uncommon full sized vintage 1930's ESKA Direct Read digital watch measuring a large 29.5x39.5mm. The chrome plate case has a couple of dings in the case rear and the usual wear in the chrome on the rear, but is usual and common for these older watches. The front and sides are exceptionally clean for being 75+ years of age! Usually we find small varieties of these Direct Read watches, this one, being the larger size is much harder to find. The three rotating dials are all original. The manual winding movement was just cleaned. Eska, a fine SWISS watch manufacturer also produced ROYCE watches.
This 1930's direct read is VERY good value at only $495!

These
vintage day/date/month, rotating bezel complications
are very hard to find! Produced in the 1950's
by various companies; these watches allowed the
user to turn the inner bezel with the left crown
in order to align the day of the week with the
date. Also, the left crown offers a quick-set
day of the week feature! As you see on the dial,
the word "BREVET" is marked, which denotes
a new patent of the idea for this feature. These
cases are larger; measuring 34.2mm across; with
gleaming rhodium plated bezel and stainless steel
snap-back. The manual winding movement was just
cleaned and is accurate with all functions working
perfectly. The original dial has a turning date
bezel, inner day of the week scale, date aperture
at 12:00, raised Arabic numerals, luminous, pencil
hands, red, triangle-tipped date indicator and
sub-seconds. This watch is seldom seen for only
$495.
