I love Cica Cola as a kid and I have been searching for vintage watch with Coca Cola logo for a while..
This rare Coca-Cola vintage mechanical hand wind watch made by Helbros from the 1950s is highly collectible among Coca Cola lovers and perfect for enthusiasts of Coca-Cola memorabilia.
The watch features a red dial with no hour marks, housed in a nickel plated steel case with a fixed bezel. It is a casual style wristwatch for unisex adults, showcasing the iconic Coca-Cola brand plus a bottle of Coca Cola on the dial. Besides the logo, the sector dial further adds to its appeal. This unique timepiece is a valuable addition to any watch collection, especially for those who appreciate vintage pieces with historical significance. One would expect to see many of these mass watches around the market but strange enough, its like a hen's tooth.
This is another Coca Cola gold filled watch made by a more famous Universal Geneve which use the bumper automatic time piece. The dial is still clean for its age with the original "Coca Cola" dial.
From lug to lug this Universal Geneve case is 41mm long and wide less the crown it is 35mm. The case is a screw in back with a mirror finish. The case serial number is 9,961,1XX signed "Star Watch Case Company".
The movement is a Universal Geneve in house caliber 139 and as mentioned it is a bumper automatic movement. There are 17 clean and inspected jewels to this gem and for sure keeps great time. Produced at the Universal Geneve Swiss factory in the year 1952.
It is interesting to note that during the early years, it used the Drink Coca Cola as its main logo while the later Coca Cola watches became Enjoy Coca Cola. The quality of the latter enjoy Coca Cola watches seemed to deteriorate using cheaper quartz movements.
I have seen three watches by Universal Geneve Coca Watches in the internet but it all belongs to the same watch owned by various owners in the past. There is another hand wind watch without the minute markers
This is another hand wind watch with a different movement.
There are also 25 years service Coca Cola watch as below :
