Hi.
Can anyone give me any information on my watch please? It's a Benson, at least 18ct - strap and movement are also gold. The movement is Swiss and jewelled - I don't have the skills to get the back off. It was last valued in 1985! and before I get it valued again it would be nice to know more about it - I've never come across one the same! The reputable jewlers who valued it back then said it is fantastic quality. It's in it's original box and hasn't been worn for at least 30 years - full working order - no scratches. Gold looks marked in the photos but it's just the way it lights up. It's possibly 1920's?
