2.1335 ALFEX “PESEUX SKELETON”, SWISS 1970s

A true “see-through” skeleton watch with a timeless Swiss heart. This Alfex is all about transparency: on the dial side you can literally observe the mechanics in motion – how the crown winds the mainspring, how the keyless works sets the hands, and how the balance and escapement (escape wheel + pallet fork) regulate time. Not just a watch, but a beautifully practical instrument for educational purposes.

The condition is outstanding for a 1970s piece: the movement looks crisp and clean, and it runs with the confidence of a watch that has been carefully kept.

Alfex watches

Alfex is a Swiss brand with roots in Lugano (Ticino), known for design-forward watches that mix classical cues with bold, often architectural case and dial ideas. Vintage Alfex models are especially interesting because they frequently used solid Swiss ebauches (like Peseux) and offered distinctive design at a level that feels far more “boutique” today than their original market position.
