Atlantic Automatic mechanical wristwatch

Overview
This is a very appealing Atlantic automatic wristwatch with a strong mid-century Swiss everyday character. The 34.88 mm case size wears well, while the silver-toned dial, gilt applied numerals, central seconds, and date display at 3 o’clock create a clean and balanced vintage look. Its main attraction lies in the combination of automatic movement, 25 jewels, and Incabloc shock protection, giving the watch both charm and solid period practicality.
