Vintage
1970s Ingersoll Model 4028 Cocktail Watch – Gold-Tone Full Set (Excellent
Condition)
📝 Product Description
Step back
into the glamour of the 1970s with this exquisite Ingersoll Model 4028
ladies cocktail watch. A stunning intersection of mid-century style and
mechanical history, this piece functions beautifully as both a reliable
timepiece and a statement jewellery layout.
Unlike
modern quartz pieces, this watch is powered by an authentic, Swiss-made
1-jewel manual wind mechanical movement—requiring no batteries, just a
classic daily wind to bring it to life.
It
features a flawless gold-tone champagne face with minimalist hour
batons, encased in a polished 20 mm gold-plated bezel. The watch
seamlessly flows into its original, integrated gold-plated bracelet, ensuring a
sleek and elegant drape on the wrist.
The Time
Capsule Bonus: This
watch comes completely complete with its incredibly rare, original 1970s gold
felt-top plastic presentation case. Finding these entry-level luxury boxes
intact and uncracked today is exceptionally rare, making this a true
collector's set or an unforgettable heritage gift.
