All auctions / Watches & Clocks / Breil - Antichoc - No reserve price - 86123 - Men - 1980-1989


An interesting Breil Antichoc vintage mechanical hand-wound watch dating roughly to the 1980s, characterized by classic proportions and an elegant aesthetic today typically associated with dress watches of that era. The case measures 28 × 35 mm and features a gold finish, long straight lugs, and a stainless steel case back bearing the number 86123. A particularly distinctive feature is the gold crown adorned with a black cabochon, a detail that reinforces the watch's elegant presentation. The silver/ivory dial features a pleasantly finely grained surface, chemin-de-fer inner minute track, Roman numerals at the four cardinal points and intermediate baton indices. The BREIL signature is placed at the top, while at 6 o'clock the cursive inscription Antichoc appears. The two-hand configuration keeps the design extremely clean. Inside there is a Swiss manual-wind mechanical movement, with decorated bridges and visible rubies. Based on the photographs alone, it is not possible to identify with sufficient certainty the calibre and the exact number of rubies, therefore these data are not declared. The specimen shows normal signs of age: wear and changes to the gold finish, small scratches on the case and a diffuse patina on the dial, particularly evident along the perimeter. These elements attest to the natural aging of the watch without compromising its vintage charm. No documentation is available regarding a recent service. Water resistance not tested and not guaranteed.
