Helvetia pilot watch from the 1930's

A little off-topic...
A beautiful Helvetia pilot watch at a correct price (they are often sold 3 or 4 times more expensive).
It seems to be entirely original (it is very rare).

It is a very nice pilot's watch from the 1930's.

At present the rear cover can easily detach itself when opened and the hinge lip needs closing slightly. That being said the cover holds tightly on until opened. I have had this watch in my collection for about a year and greatly enjoyed it.

Helvetia is the female way of saying Switzerland ? . CH on the vehicle registration code sticker on the back of cars means Confederation Helvetia . The confederation is made up of Cantons which there are 26 .Why I wrote this I do not know but it harkens back to my heritage which comes from Switzerland Hence the name Wymann .While were at it there are four languages in Switzerland .The Swiss boy scout belt buckle only has three on it ? .Switzerland makes very nice chocolate and cheese and watches especially Kermit's Helvetia ,now I have done a 360 degree .Phew that was a close one ,time for my medication and a visit to the Krankenhaus which is a word I love fits the place perfectly .

I also have Swiss origins, my great-grandparents lived in Zurich. And my last name is Bachmann.

That’s really nice. Love the propellor on the Helvetia logo, the milling round the bezel, the dial lettering, and especially that hour hand.

Hi, thanks to the link to my site.

I've just acquired the smaller type of the Helvetia watch above with the Helvetia 82A movement. Interestingly this is an example sold by Helvetia to Helbros in the US and has an unusual white dial. Made in 1942/43.

Thanks. Carl.

It looks like an authentic one. However, I am not a huge fan of watches, so I can't tell you exactly. If you want to check it out or maybe try to sell it, you can contact the multitude of platforms that are specialized in this domain. For example, I have been collaborating with Pawn shop on Oxford Street for some years now. My father is a watch lover and I often need help when choosing a gift for him. With their help, my father adores his presents and I am sure they are the perfect ones to help you.
