Story & Heritage This Codhor belongs to an era when numerous independent Swiss manufacturers created expressive mechanical watches for a growing international market. Automatic winding and day-date displays were desirable features, offering the wearer both mechanical sophistication and practical information at a glance. Its cushion-shaped gold-plated case, silver sunburst dial and bold calendar window capture the unmistakable aesthetic of the period. Rather than hiding its history, the visible wear and softened plating reveal decades of genuine use and give the watch an individual character. Today, such watches offer collectors an accessible glimpse into traditional Swiss manufacturing—before quartz technology transformed the industry. This Codhor remains a charming and highly wearable survivor from that important chapter in horological history. Internal Reference Number - Ctm. 89
