Hi guys, i saw this wilka watch on ebay, i can't seem to find any information regarding this watch on the internet, and even the company that makes it seem non-existent, but this looks a beauty, so im still considering whether i should spend on this watch. Pls advise! Below is the link to the watch.

Literally thousands of small generic swiss watch companies have come and gone over the years, leaving little trace of their existence. Most simply purchased generic movement blanks (ebauche) from one of the big movement manufacturers and stamped their name on the dial. Very little was produced in-house and quality was relatively low.

The watch you reference is from one of these generic companies. Value would be about $25.
