~ Vintage Gents Tugaris Wrist Watch ~
A waterproof wristwatch by Swiss watchmakers Tugaris.
The watch case/bezel and crown are made of stainless steel.
The watch has a soft champagne coloured dial with gold quarterly numerals, batons and hands.
The dial reads ‘TUGARIS 17 JEWELS, ANTIMAGNETIC’ and beneath the hands ‘MONOREX SHOCK PROTECTION’ and “SWISS MADE”.
The case-back repeats this information as well as the word “WATERPROOF” and has a model number 314 . This number can also be found inscribed on the mechanism.
The watch comes on a stainless steel elasticated strap that is not original to the watch.
~ Dimensions ~
The dial has a diameter 1.25 inches (3 cm).
The distance from strap lug to strap lug gives the watch length of 1.6 inches (4 cm).
With its strap it weighs 55g.
~ Condition ~
The watch is in good working order and wearable condition, but the crystal has a few tiny scratches that cast tiny shadows on the dial.
There are one or two scratches to the strap lugs and back cover.
