MORE FROM BRAVINGTONS

Morning everyone Today, we’re taking a close look at a fantastic piece of British retail horology—a vintage Bravingtons Wetrista Automatic! ​Hailing from the heart of mid-century London (with shops in King’s Cross and Ludgate Hill), Bravingtons sourced quality Swiss movements to create robust timepieces under their own name. This particular model features a 25-jewel automatic movement with Incabloc shock protection, bold Arabic numerals, a date window, and a striking red central seconds hand—all paired with a period-correct Fixo-Flex expansion bracelet. ​If you enjoy vintage watch reviews, mechanical movement breakdowns, and horological history, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe to the channel! ​ #VintageWatch #Bravingtons #WatchCollecting #SwissMovement #Horology #WatchReview #

About the brand

Bravingtons

Bravingtons was a prominent London jewellery and watch retailer, founded by Thomas Bravington in the early 1860s, which retailed Swiss-made wristwatches under its own names, notably Renown and Wetrista. Operating from Pentonville Road and other London locations, the firm also sold pocket watches and military watches, including WWII-era surplus pieces. Collectors today value Bravingtons as a British retailer, not a manufacturer, for its attractive, well-made mid-century retail watches with British provenance, which continue to appear regularly in the vintage market.
