AS CONFIRMED IN THE COA PROVIDED.
THE DETAILED
SERVICING
TOOK AN INVESTMENT OF
5
(
WORTH EVERY PENNY
) AS A VALUE-ADDER FOR SUCH A SPECIAL COLLECTIBLE WRISTWATCH THAT THIS EXAMPLE OFFERS.
A DETAIL SERVICE,
BY MY VINTAGE WATCHMAKER
, INCLUDES:
THE COMPLETE DISMANTLING OF ALL THE INTERNAL PARTS AND THEN CLEANED IN A SPECIALIZED ULTRASOUND MACHINE.
AFTER THOROUGH CLEANING, ALL PARTS ARE REASSEMBLED AND PUT BACK INTO PLACE WITH HIGH-GRADE OIL INTRODUCED TO THE SAME.
MOST VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS SIMPLY PUT ALL OF THE WORKING PARTS STILL ASSEMBLED INTO THE ULTRASOUND CLEANING MACHINE WHICH ONLY REMOVES APPROXIMATELY 60% OF ALL THE OLD OIL.
THE QUALITY OF THE SERVICE THAT THIS WATCH RECEIVED IS SECOND TO NONE.
I TESTED THE WATCH FOR A 17 HOUR RUN AND THE CORRECT TIME WAS ONLY SLOW BY 4 MINUTES(WELL WITHIN ACCEPTABLE EXPECTATIONS FOR THESE OLD MECHANICAL WRISTWATCHES).
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE HOW LONG THE WATCH WILL CONTINUED TO KEEP ACCURATE TIME AFTER THE TEST PERIOD, BUT THE WATCH WAS STILL RUNNING STRONG AFTER I ENDED MY TEST DOCUMENTATION.
IT IS CONSIDERED BY MOST CREDENTIALED VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS THAT FOR ONE OF THESE MECHANICAL WATCHES KEEPING ACCURATE TIME WITHIN 30 TO 45 MINUTED PER DAY IS WITHIN A REASONABLE RANGE OF EXPECTATION.
IT IS POSSIBLE TO REGULATE THE SPEED OF THE TIMEKEEPING MECHANICS BY POPPING OFF THE BACK-PLATE AND ADJUSTING THE MOVABLE REGULATOR ARM UP OR DOWN TO BETTER FINE TUNE ACCURACY.
PLEASE NOTE: A vintage collectible timepiece will not keep as accurate a time as a modern quartz wristwatch or cellular telephone and nor should it be expected to. If total accuracy is what you desire or need, then there are many quartz watches available at a fraction of the cost.
THE WATCH IS IN OVERALL
EXCELLENT OR BETTER
CONDITION WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST OF COSMETIC AND/OR CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS.
THE WATCH COMES WITH LEATHER BAND WITH TWO CHROMED MICKEY CHARMS ATTACHED TO THE SAME.
THE BAND IS IN
LIGHTLY
WORN CONDITION AND STILL QUITE SOFT(SCARCE FOR LEATHER 85+ YEARS OR MORE AGED).
THIS VERSION LEATHER BAND IS THE SCARCER ROUNDED END VERSION(MOST OF THE BANDS COME WITH THE POINTED TIP BAND).
THE CHROMED CHARMS ON THE BAND ARE IN OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION.
IT IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT TO HAVE VINTAGE WATCHES CERTIFIED BY RESPECTED VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS AS BOGUS PARTS ARE COMMON WHEN FOUND ON THE INSIDES OF THE SAME ALL THE TIME.
THERE WERE MILLIONS OF VINTAGE DIME WATCHES MADE AND IT IS EASY TO CANNIBALIZE PARTS FROM THE SAME AND PLACE INSIDE THESE HIGHER END VINTAGE WATCHES.
I HAVE OWNED AND SOLD HUNDREDS OF VINTAGE DISNEY/INGERSOLL WATCHES OVER THE YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY OF THE SAME COME THROUGH MY HANDS LATELY THAT ARE GREAT LOOKING, BUT END UP WITH BOGUS PARTS THAT ARE NOT SEEN.
"
BUYER BEWARE
" AND MORE IMPORTANT "
BUYER BE SMART
" AND PAY A SLIGHT PREMIUM TO KNOW THAT WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE IN A VINTAGE WATCH IS WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE THERE.
BEGINNING IN 1935, DISNEY/INGERSOLL ADDED THE COPY: MADE IN U.S.A. TO THE DIAL FACE NEAR THE 8 HOUR POSITION THUS MAKING THIS CLEARLY THE 1935 VERSION.
PLEASE VIEW MY ENCLOSED PHOTO REFERENCES FOR THE BEST TOOL TO USE IN DETERMINING THE EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY OF EACH ITEM THAT MAKES UP THIS WONDERFUL SET FOR YOURSELF.
