Mini Story:


Dunklings was a well-known Australian jeweller, particularly in Melbourne, and watches branded “Rivana” were often Swiss-made pieces retailed through their stores. This example reflects the clean, understated design of the 1970s with its brushed steel tonneau case, gold baton markers and practical day-date display.


Powered by a 25 jewel automatic Swiss movement with Incabloc shock protection, it represents the reliable everyday watches of the era—built to last and designed with timeless simplicity.


A great vintage piece for collectors of Australian jeweller-branded watches or anyone looking for a classic mechanical watch with character.
