Stunning original Art Deco 1920's platinum and diamond Péry wristwatch.
*Péry, a municipality in Switzerland, was the home of Péry watch, opened by watch manufacturer Dreyfus Frères SA of Biel in 1903. The company did not survive the financial crisis of the 1930s, and the building was converted in 1934 into a typewriter ribbon, stencils and carbon paper factory.
Condition: winds and running.
The watch IS keeping time at present, but WILL require professional cleaning.
But due to the delicate nature and age of antique timepieces, we cannot guarantee them to be running upon delivery, nor does it come with any warranty.
The condition is very good with negligible wear commensurate with age. Note: Face has some wear on face from use and age.
