Description: Lucerne Calendar Watch - Vintage Swiss-Made Timepiece (Non-Functioning) Overview This Lucerne calendar watch embodies the classic elegance of Swiss design, reminiscent of iconic vintage Rolex styles. Although this watch is currently non-functioning, its aesthetics and historical value make it a desirable piece for collectors and vintage watch enthusiasts. The rich black dial, bold luminous markers, and classic calendar feature evoke the charm of mid-20th-century Swiss watchmaking. Dial and Hands Dial: The black dial provides a sleek and timeless background, contrasting beautifully with the bold luminous markers and the refined "Lucerne" signature at 12 o'clock. The dial also features a date window at 3 o'clock, accented with a red outline, adding an elegant yet practical touch. Hour Markers: The luminous hour markers alternate in shape—triangular at 12 o'clock, rectangular, and circular—evoking a classic design that enhances visibility and character. Hands: The watch is fitted with straight, silver-tone hands with luminous inlays. A small sub-seconds dial adds a sophisticated detail, true to the style of the era. Date Function Date Window: Positioned at 3 o'clock, the date function showcases the day in a contrasting red outline. While this function is visually intact, it may not be operational due to the watch’s non-functioning state. Case and Crystal Case: The case has aged gracefully, showing minor scratches consistent with previous wear, adding a desirable patina to the watch. Missing the bezel. Case Back: The case back features an intricate engraving with "Base Metal Bezel" (missing) and "Stainless Steel Back," alongside an emblem. These details add a touch of elegance to the watch, enhancing its collector appeal. Crystal: The crystal is in good condition, with minor surface marks that do not detract from its overall aesthetic. Dimensions Case Diameter: 36.5mm, excluding the crown, offering a comfortable fit. 40mm with crown. Lug Width: 19mm Important Details Condition: This Lucerne watch is non-functioning and sold as-is. The condition reflects its age, with some wear on the dial and case, which enhances its vintage appeal. The bezel of the watch is missing but it still looks good, at least, in my opinion. Functionality: This watch is currently not operational. Given its age and non-working condition, it is recommended for collectors or as a project watch. Restoration may be possible for those interested in reviving its functionality, but this is left to the buyer’s discretion. Desirability: This model channels the aesthetic of early Rolex watches, making it an attractive addition for those drawn to mid-century design. Its patina and overall look serve as a testament to its era. For additional high-quality images and further details, please visit our website.
