The soul of Wyler Vetta is born from three different worlds: Italian creativity and innovazione, American courage and spirit, and Swiss precisione high technology. Infamous for surviving falls from the Eiffel Tower and the Space Needle, Wyler Vetta watches are known for their durability. The Vetta Competizione is a high-end offering, featuring a 21 jewel ETA 2452 automatic movement. This watch is exceptionally accurate, with a high amplitude, it averages +/-10 seconds per day.
The case (35.0mm excluding the crown) is in fine condizione, with only light age wear. The dial is in mint condizione, perfectly preserved beneath the newly installed crystal. The red gold hands match the case hue and the crown has ample grip. The date clicks over at midnight, as it should and the steel caseback also bears the "Competizione" designazione.
The watch comes on vintage 20mm crocodile calf leather bands by Kreisler. Overall, this is a highly stylish early Sixties marriage of Italian design and Swiss engineering. It definitely wants to join your "collezione"!
