Vintage Tell Swiss Bullseye Tuxedo Dial Manual Wind 17J 33.5mm Gold Plated Watch

This vintage TELL wears one of the most sought-after mid-century dial designs: the two-tone "bullseye" or "tuxedo" dial. A cream center is ringed by a bold black band carrying large cream Arabic numerals, with an outer cream railway track marked 5 to 60 for easy reading of the seconds. Silver-tone lumed hands and a slim center seconds hand sit beneath a domed crystal, all in a gold-plated round case with long, gracefully curved lugs. The styling is typical of Swiss watches of the 1940s–50s.

Case & Movement:

- Case: Gold-plated round case with stainless steel snap-on caseback, 33.5mm

- Movement: Swiss mechanical hand-wound (manual winding), 17 jewels, Incabloc shock protection

- Caseback: Engraved "Stainless Steel Back – Water & Shock Protected," with "G," case number and a circled "10" mark

- Dial: Two-tone bullseye, signed "Tell – Waterprotected – Incabloc – 17 Jewels"

- Strap: Black leather strap, stamped "Gucci" on the reverse (not original to the watch)

Condition:

Genuine vintage piece in pre-owned condition consistent with its age. The dial shows noticeable spotting across the cream center and outer track, and the luminous material on the hands has aged. The gold plating shows wear, most visible on the lug tips, and the domed crystal shows scratches. The watch is shown running in the photos, but no service history is available, so it is sold as-is; current timekeeping accuracy and water resistance are not guaranteed. Please review all photos carefully as they form part of the item description.
