1940s Richard stainless steel waterproof bumper automatic model, featuring a very rare W Bulls-Eye dial.

Housed in a screw-back waterproof case with antimagnetic and shock-resistant properties, it is equipped with the early bumper automatic Cal.275 by A. Schild, fitted with Incabloc shock protection.

The rare two-tone “W Bulls-Eye” dial is distinguished by its creative design, with even the subsidiary dial executed in a two-tone finish. The outer perimeter features a silvered, recessed rail track, highlighting the watch’s refined aesthetics and quality despite being from a lesser-known brand.

While minor scratches are present, the stainless steel case shows no signs of thinning, and the dial has aged beautifully with its original luminous still intact. The overall look, with its naturally developed patina and one-owner feel, adds further charm to this piece.
