Item Description
This watch from 1933 is not only the first Mickey watch but it is also the first version produced. It was altered slightly in the Fall of 1933. This version has Art Deco geometric designs on the case that were removed from later versions. This is also variety with metal link band including two featuring Mickey images. Both images retain near full black accent color as issued. Box complete with foil Exposition sticker at top left corner as issued. Has insert and guarantee paper. Outside of box shows scattered light aging, underside has .25" spot of missing surface paper. Color remains strong, interior is exceptionally clean. Tight, Fine. Dial features image of Mickey with second wheel that has 3 additional Mickey images. Tiniest trace of luster loss around extreme top rim edge that meets the crystal, this is only noticeable upon very close inspection. An exceptional example and about as nice as they come. N. Mint. Running but not guaranteed to keep time.
