Vintage Ingersoll Sports mechanical wristwatch, measuring approximately 35mm across excluding the crown.

A particularly characterful early-style Ingersoll with a classic cushion-shaped case and fixed wire-style lugs, giving it the strong “trench watch” appearance associated with early wristwatches.

The aged cream dial is signed INGERSOLL SPORTS and SWISS MADE, with large black Arabic numerals, railway-style outer minute track and a subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock. Black hands complete the very period-looking design.

The watch is untested, therefore no guarantee is made regarding running condition, accuracy or service history.

Very aged vintage condition throughout. The dial has substantial natural ageing and patina, the crystal is heavily scratched, and there are red marks/residue visible around the dial/crystal area. The case and case back show extensive wear, oxidation, corrosion and verdigris, particularly around the fixed lugs. Please study the photographs carefully as they form an important part of the condition description.

A genuinely interesting old Ingersoll with a much earlier appearance than the majority of later British Ingersoll watches. The Sports dial, subsidiary seconds and fixed-lug cushion case make this a particularly attractive restoration or collection piece.
