Nasia Vintage Watch - Worth Anything

[Rishah]

Hi Everyone

Thanks in advance

I found a vintage watch from the company "Nasia" , looks like a swiss make. It looks very beautiful from inside and says 15 Jewels. Does anyone have any knowledge about this watch and is it worth anything.

I think you're new to vintage watches? This one has a very basic, common and undecorated movement. Case and dial are in poor conditions and basically not restorable. Its asking price could be 10 Euro. Suggest that you join into some collector's forum to learn more on the subject.

Thanks, I agree I am a rookie to the vintage watches or for that matter of fact watches overall. Thanks for the info

Hi judging by the escape wheel this is a pin lever movement .  Any watch is worth something  in this case probablty   around  the £10 mark approx as it a run of the mill watch.    cheers

Monetary value may be low, but there is a bit of history associated with all of these long forgotten Swiss manufacturers.

Even the relatively simple movements like that one are feats of precision engineering, and very attractive objects in their own right.
