NOS Vintage Junghans Tank 1930/40's

[martinzx]

A recent purchase, I am very taken with this watch, the condition is excellent, almost NOS, I am guessing its about 1930's a Junghans Tank with sub second dial, stainless steel back, the watch has a calibre Junghans 59, it dates late 1930's early 1940's & it also has fixed lugs it has the original band,which is stitched. I have not cleaned the dial, the edge just has some surface crime. I must say I am very pleased to add this watch to my collection. blue steel hands are beautiful IMHO. It looks very similar dial wise to Omega's from the 1930's.

Sorry about the crappy mobile pics, I will take better pictures, when I find my camera....

Any comments/questions/information is most welcome.

Cheers Martin

Congrats on the purchase, it looks absolutely stunning! What's the diameter, 28 mm?

That's a very nice find, looks to be in excetional condition. Interesting round movement in a rectangular case, a ladies sized movement perhaps.

I have a similar styled Cyma. In nowhere near the condition of your Junghans

and the movement is rectangular to fit the case.

I love this 30's style, just wish mine was in the condition yours is in. Wear it in health.

That is minty. Is the dial refinished?

[martinzx]

Cheers! The diameter is about 27mm with crown, i think...

Thanks Martin
