2.1050 SANDOZ ALARM, ST.STEEL SWISS 1970s

£525.00

This vintage Sandoz wristwatch features all of the benefits of a dress watch with functionality, making it a great choice for any collector looking for a stylish daily wear. Besides absolutely timeless and actual design, this watch has a complicated movement featuring loud alarm and date functions.

The alarm is particularly loud due to a specific technical solution – the caseback is resting on a flexible rubber ring, which turns the whole caseback into a membrane with high vibration conductivity. When alarm goes off the sound is louder and clearer compared to most of wrist alarms that we have ever serviced and tested.

  • Solid stainless steel case, polishing has been updated while servicing
  • Loud alarm sound due to a rubber-suspended caseback making really sharp and strong buzz when alarm is off
