This vintage Lathin is a fantastic blend of sporty utility and classic dress styling. The gold filled stepped case gives the watch strong vintage presence, while the black dial creates bold contrast against the applied numbers, lume filled indices, and matching lume hands. The red sweeping seconds hand adds a sharp pop of color and reinforces the watch’s sport influenced character.
Inside is a 17 jewel Swiss manual wind movement featuring Incabloc shock protection and antimagnetic construction, both premium technical features for mid century watches. These systems helped protect the balance staff from shock and reduce timing variation from magnetic fields, making watches like this more durable for everyday wear.
Lathin Watch Company produced reliable Swiss watches during the peak era of mechanical watchmaking, often combining strong technical specifications with eye catching design. Many pieces were built to offer real tool watch durability while still maintaining dress watch elegance.
Finished with a steel caseback for durability, this watch runs well and keeps time by vintage standards. A very cool combination of sport and dress styling, offering technical interest, bold visual design, and great everyday vintage wearability.
