Hi, I was given this watch by my grandma. I believe it was a present for her 18th or 21st birthday, which would date it between 1939-1941, it's possible it was given to her as an heirloom though. The back of the watch is stamped with 30991 or 30997 and has several faint etchings - one is clearly 3115, one looks like K524 and one looks like E6YV or VY?3. The face has LeCoultre and Swiss on it and it is a backwind small watch. The bracelet band says Pat Pending and Excalibur 7 St. Steel on it. Can anyone help with the date and value of this small ladies stainless steel watch please? Hopefully the photos will load.... Thank you    | ||

These are very pretty watches, but they're not hugely valuable, as they are difficult to repair with very minimal parts availability. Maybe $250-300. Form the looks of it, looks to be around 1955. | ||

Thanks Zaf. The watch is in full working order at the moment, hopefully it will stay that way. Does it have a model name or number? | ||

Hi Faberge, It might be an idea to start new thread for your watch so it gets seen in the listing. Karen | ||

Hi Karen, the US model MAY have had a model designation, but you can only dig it up if you have all the old USA catalogs. I don't have them. I believe the movement that is in the watch is a caliber 426 (or similar). So you can call your watch "Ladies back set in steel with caliber 426", that should sufficiently identify it. Regarding the other fellow, yes please start a new thread. | ||
