DELUXE SMITHS A 409 PATTERN DENNISON CASED EXPEDITION WRISTWATCH 1954/55 WITH BOX AND PAPERS cushion case Some marks from case opening

Some marks from case opening but I personally advent polished this so the marks could be improved

though the later ones like this example were kif shockproofed

Winding crowns are usually replaced with the correct type and material

A couple of time scratches

I do not have the history of this watch as a colleague purchased it many years ago as part of a job lot and sold it to me subsequently
