A striking vintage Avia Swiss Made skeleton wristwatch, featuring a fully exposed mechanical movement with gilt finish, traditional Roman numeral chapter ring and ornate black hands.

The watch has a slim, elegant gold-tone case measuring approximately 31mm across excluding the crown and 37mm lug-to-lug, giving it a classic dress-watch profile while the skeletonised 17 Jewel Swiss Made ES 95 movement adds plenty of visual interest.

The case is gold tone rather than gold plated, with the caseback marked “Base Metal Bezel / Stainless Steel Back / Swiss Watch.”

Fitted with a black leather-effect strap and matching gold-tone buckle which will accommodate wrists up to approximately 19cm.

The watch shows age-related cosmetic wear consistent with a vintage piece, including wear to the strap and light marks to the case, but presents attractively overall. The watch has been observed to be working and keeping time during basic testing.  Please study the photographs carefully as they form an important part of the description.
