Certina - Pointer Date - K.F.340 - Ref. 34748 - circa 1949 --- A charming vintage Certina manual-wind wristwatch from circa 1949, distinguished by its unusual pointer-date display, subsidiary seconds and beautifully balanced period dial. The silver-champagne dial is particularly attractive, combining applied gold-tone Arabic numerals and baton hour markers with a contrasting blue 1–31 date scale around the perimeter. The date is indicated by a slender central hand with a distinctive red crescent-shaped tip, giving the watch considerably more visual character than a conventional three-hand design. A finely detailed small-seconds register at 6 o’clock completes the classic configuration. Inside is the signed Certina K.F.340 hand-wound mechanical movement, clearly marked “Swiss Made”, “Certina” and “15 Jewels”. The movement is shown in detail in the photographs and represents an appealing piece of Certina’s post-war mechanical watchmaking. The compact case measures approximately 24.1 mm excluding the crown and is fitted with a black leather strap and contrasting gold-tone buckle. The case back carries reference 34748 and serial number 1485715. --- Specifications * Brand: Certina * Model: Pointer Date * Reference / case number: 34748 * Serial number: 1485715 * Period: circa 1949 * Movement: Manual-wind mechanical * Calibre: Certina K.F.340 * Jewels: 15 * Case material: Silver-tone case with stainless-steel back * Case diameter: approx. 24.1 mm excluding the crown * Dial: Silver-champagne with applied gold-tone Arabic numerals and baton markers * Date display: Blue peripheral 1–31 scale with central red crescent-tipped pointer * Functions: Hours, minutes, small seconds and pointer date * Strap: Black leather strap with gold-tone buckle * Dial and movement markings: Swiss Made --- Condition Very good.
