We would like to introduce you to vintage watches from JW Benson, a luxury jewelry store that is a supplier to the British Royal Family.
JW Benson is a long-established watch manufacturer founded in 1847, but after its factory was destroyed in World War I, it became a high-end jewelry store that produced watches using movements from Swiss manufacturers.

This watch has a rectangular case, which is rare for Benson.
The movement is Swiss made, but the case is made of solid K9 gold by Denison Case, a high-end British case manufacturer.
The belt has been replaced with a new open type one.
It is unknown whether it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.


We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
