Giving a minimum of attention of a jewelry and decorative component, CYMA Company has found the formula of success in art of exact mechanics – functionality, accuracy, and reliability.
This gorgeous men’s timepiece features an original metal dial with little traces of aging. The watches with metal dials were issued for Army and remained the privilege of officers or for the people conducting an active way of life, for example motorists, race drivers. The original metal face features a 60 minute checkered outer track border with line of red 13-24 hour numbering, black Arabic numerals, original blue steel hands of Breguet-style and a slightly sunken sub-second’s dial. The dial is signed ‘CYMA’.

This watch is mechanical and completely original. The brand name of CYMA Watch Company is stamped on the movement. The signed original movement is in excellent condition. The mechanism was very well saved, considering age of this watch.
This watch was converted from pocket to wristwatch. The pocket watches were not practical in combat. Not to lose the watch out of a usual pocket, the military men have started to weld on the case the second ring or to do two wire lugs and to pass through them a band, for use as a wristwatch.Diameter watch: 47 mm
Thickness watch: 12 mmThe timepiece is in working condition, well hold time. Watch ‘Cyma’ is much known among collectors. Cyma on the wrist identifies its owner as someone who has already proved their point. History: In 1962 two brothers from the town of La Chaux-de-Fonds – Joseph and Theodore Schwob - officially entered the watchmaking ranks under the company name CYMA. The name was inspired by the French word cime, meaning ‘summit’ or ‘the highest point’, which, in turn, is derived from the Latin word cyma, meaning ‘a shoot’. The brothers were trailblazers right from the outset, focusing much of their work on avant-garde mechanical production techniques.
In 1891, Frederic Henri Sandoz, a businessman from Le Locle, created a new watchmaking company «Tavannes» producing both simple and complicated watches, particularly chronographs. A year later, he went into partnership with the Schwob brothers and they founded «Tavannes Watch Co». Only from that time CYMA was pushed into the market.
Soon Henri Sandoz and his partners opened markets around the world, notably in Canada, Russia, United States and the Far East. By the 1920's the Tavannes Watch Co. or Cyma Watch Co. was one of Switzerland's most productive and popular manufacturer's with offices in nearly every overseas market.SHIPPING TIME: Your item will be posted at once after the payment, and it is estimated to arrive in 2-4 weeks (15-30 days) in normal conditions.
