PRISMA Classic 5702/13 'Silver Linen'

€195.00

Description

It was 1970 when the village watch shop placed this masterpiece in its window — a polished beacon of Swiss precision housed in robust steel. The proud first owner was captivated by the silver linen dial; in sunlight its subtle woven texture revealed an immediate air of class. A smooth Fixoflex bracelet slipped over his wrist and settled perfectly, ready for decades of daily adventure.

Every morning began with the same ritual: winding the mechanical AS movement by hand, feeling the crown between thumb and forefinger until the spring whispered that it was full. Inside, the Incabloc shock protection silently guarded the delicate gear train, while the date at three o’clock dutifully flipped as each new day began. Clean, striped indices marked the hours through joyous celebrations, thrilling premieres, and quiet moments at the kitchen table, as 17 rubies spun millions of times without fail.

Now, more than half a century later, this watch still ticks as vibrantly as when it first graced that display — not merely an instrument, but a ticking time capsule of craftsmanship, elegance, and pure nostalgia.

History

This model emerged in the late 1960s–early 1970s amid a golden era of mechanical watchmaking. Built around a reliable AS manual-wind caliber with Incabloc protection and a date complication, it exemplifies practical Swiss engineering paired with understated design: linen-textured dials, applied striped indices, and durable steel cases. Favored for everyday wear, examples with original Fixoflex bracelets are especially sought after by collectors for their authentic period character and enduring comfort.
