DISNEY
1939 INGERSOLL MICKEY MOUSE "FLUTED STYLE" WRISTWATCH WITH "
VINTAGE REPLACEMENT
" BROWN LEATHER BAND.
THE BAND MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 8 3/4" LONG(WATCH INCLUDED IN MEASUREMENT). THE ORIGINAL BAND WITH WATCH MEASURES APPROXIMATELY 1" SHORTER THAN THE VINTAGE REPLACEMENT LEATHER BAND.
I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THIS WATCH CHANGED THE WRISTBAND SO THAT THE SAME WOULD FIT THEIR UNIQUE WRIST SIZE.
THIS MAKES THE WATCH A
GREAT WEARABLE
FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS FOR SO MANY MORE INDIVIDUALS WITH THE EXTRA 1" IN LENGTH,
INCLUDING ME
.
I RECENTLY HAD THE WATCH DETAIL SERVICED BY A HIGHLY RESPECTED VINTAGE WATCHMAKER (
5 INVESTMENT
).
THE SERVICING VINTAGE WATCHMAKER HAS PROVIDED A SIGNED CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY WHICH WILL GO TO THE NEW OWNER OF THIS WONDERFUL WRISTWATCH.
I
TESTED
THE WATCH FOR AN
18 HOUR RUN
AND THE
CORRECT TIME WAS DISPLAYED
(
AS GOOD AS IT GETS
).
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE AS TO HOW LONG THAT SAME ACCURACY CAN BE SUSTAINED OVER MORE TIME.
IF ONE OF THESE 80-YEAR-OLD TIMEPIECES CAN KEEP ACCURATE TIME TO WITHIN 30 TO 45 MINUTES OVER A 24 HOUR PERIOD IS CONSIDERED TO BE WITHIN AN ACCEPTABLE RANGE OF EXPECTATION BY MOIST CREDENTIALED VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS.
PLEASE NOTE: A vintage collectible timepiece will not keep as accurate a time as a modern quartz wristwatch or cellular telephone and nor should it be expected to. If total accuracy is what you desire or need, then there are many quartz watches available at a fraction of the cost.
UNLIKE MOST VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS, THIS WATCH HAD THE FOLLOWING DONE TO THE SAME WHEN DETAIL SERVICED:
ALL THE PARTS WERE COMPLETELY DISMANTLED BEFORE BEING INSERTED INTO A SPECIAL ULTRA-SOUND CLEANING PROCESS. ONCE THE PARTS ARE COMPLETELY CLEANED OF OLD OILS, ETC., THEY ARE PAINSTAKINGLY PUT BACK TOGETHER AND PLACED BACK INTO THE CASING. THE NEW OIL USED IS OF THE HIGHEST GRADE AVAILABLE.
MOST WATCHMAKERS WILL SIMPLY PUT THE INTERNAL PARTS WHILE STILL ASSEMBLED THROUGH THE SAME TYPE OF CLEANING PROCESS AND THEN PUT THE ASSEMBLY BACK INTO THE CASE. DOING THE CLEANING THIS WAY WILL ONLY REMOVE APPROXIMATELY 60% OF ALL THE OLD OILS AND OTHER SUBSTANCES THAT NEED TO BE REMOVED.
THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT KNOWLEDGE TO HAVE.
IT IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE IMPORTANT TO HAVE VINTAGE WATCHES CERTIFIED BY RESPECTED VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS AS BOGUS PARTS ARE COMMON WHEN FOUND ON THE INSIDES OF THE SAME CONSTANTLY.
THERE WERE MILLIONS OF VINTAGE DIME WATCHES MADE AND IT IS EASY TO CANNIBALIZE PARTS FROM THE SAME AND PLACE THEM INSIDE THESE HIGHER-END VINTAGE WATCHES.
I HAVE OWNED AND SOLD HUNDREDS OF VINTAGE DISNEY/INGERSOLL WATCHES OVER THE YEARS AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY OF THE SAME COME THROUGH MY HANDS THAT ARE GREAT LOOKING BUT END UP WITH BOGUS PARTS THAT ARE NOT SEEN.

BUYER BEWARE

POSSIBLY
PAY A SLIGHT PREMIUM TO KNOW THAT WHAT YOU CAN'T SEE IN A VINTAGE WATCH IS WHAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE THERE.
