Vintage Watches

 
The conventional definition of a vintage watch has been a mechanical watch that was made up through the 1960s, after which time mass-produced quartz watches became extremely popular.*
 
Antique and vintage watches are of interest to collectors for many reasons. Vintage watches offer a level of quality and craftsmanship that we generally don't see in most watches manufactured today. The range of choices in design offers something for every taste, while intricate complications such as the chronograph, repeater, calendar, moon phase, day, date or alarm attract others. Still others look for vintage watches that tie in with something else they collect. For example, someone may buy the classic Ingersoll Mickey Mouse watch not because she collects watches, but because she is a Disney collector. And for many people, antique and vintage watches are simply good investments.
 
No matter what type of antique or vintage watch you are interested in, this is a good place to start. New listings for collectible watches are added virtually every day.
 
Some of the names you may find are Audemars Piguet, Baume & Mercier, Benrus, Breitling, Bulova, Cartier, Elgin, Girard-Perregaux, Gruen, Hamilton, International Watch Company IWC, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Longines, Omega, Patek Philippe, Rolex, TAG Heuer, Universal Geneve, Vacheron & Constantin, Waltham, Wittnauer, and many more.
 
Other finds may include military watches, vintage and antique ladies watches, sportsmen's watches, jewelry watches, and character watches.
 
Happy hunting!!
 
 
*Today's definition of vintage now appears to include more recent watches (e.g. Swatch, the first digital watches). When you look at any watch listed, read the details carefully.
