Introducing a stunning timepiece: a New-Old-Stock BALMER Automatic Wristwatch.

This self-winding watch is powered by an automatic movement caliber LM-196, featuring 21 jewels, a date sub-dial, a central second hand, a stop-seconds mechanism, and a 24-hour sub-dial. Swiss-made, it offers reliable precision and durability.

Housed in a 46mm round stainless-steel case with a display case back, this timepiece is also water-resistant, ensuring functionality across various conditions.

The dial boasts a sunburst gray finish, complemented by white Roman Numerals, a "railroad" minute/second track, and matching luminous hands for excellent legibility. The sub-dial date is set at 6 o’clock, while the 24-hour sub-dial is at 12 o’clock. The dial is signed with the Balmer logo and the word “Automatic”. 

It comes with a blue Balmer genuine leather two-piece strap, adding a refined touch. The watch also includes its original box and paper, making it a complete set. 

In excellent condition, this timepiece is running smoothly and keeping precise time—an ideal blend of classic style and modern functionality.

Vintage watches are generally smaller than contemporary models. Men’s watches typically range from 29 to 36mm in width (with some being larger or smaller), excluding the crown. In our listings, we strive to include all relevant dimensions of each watch. If you don’t see a specific measurement or if we’ve overlooked it, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Women’s watches from the 1900s to the 1970s were also significantly smaller than today’s offerings. Feel free to ask any questions regarding size.

We prefer to take photographs outdoors when the weather allows. However, when shooting indoors, please note that we use lightboxes equipped with 360 LED bulbs, which can magnify any flaws that may be less noticeable to the naked eye. That said, we never use Photoshop to alter our images or remove blemishes. While we may adjust the lighting as needed, what you see is what you get, and we take pride in that.

The condition is pre-owned.  
The item may show some signs of cosmetic wear, but it is fully operational, and functions as intended.
Please take a moment to review the photos, and don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions you may have. 

The item will be carefully packed for shipment.
