We would like to introduce vintage watches from JWBenson, a luxury jewelry store that is a purveyor to the British royal family.
JWBenson is a watch manufacturer with a long history, having been founded in 1847, but after its factory disappeared during World War I, it became a high-end jewelry shop, making watches using movements from Swiss manufacturers.

This is a men's wristwatch from around 1950.
This is a ``purely British made'' watch that uses a movement made by SMITH in the UK rather than a Swiss movement.
The case is made by the British luxury case manufacturer Dennison Case.
The overhaul history is unknown, but the balance swings well and is moving smoothly and energetically.


We hope this wonderful vintage watch will add color to your everyday!
