Please note that the majority of our items are vintage and therefore have tales to tell unless stated otherwise. Therefore, please look at pictures, descriptions and measurements provided as they give you the best idea of the story this item has to tell.
* Please note that when you buy a vintage product, the dimensions may vary slightly from a new one depending on previous care and storage.
Q: What size of watch fits in this case? A: The case measures approximately 20 × 7 × 7 cm and is designed to hold one watch on its removable cushion. As a general guide, travel cases with similar dimensions comfortably house most watches in the 36–45 mm range; very oversized or extra-thick pieces may be a tight fit. To be certain, compare your watch’s case diameter and thickness with the interior clearance before purchase.
Q: How many watches does it hold? A: This is a single-watch case. Your watch secures around the removable cushion for protection and shape retention.
Q: Is it suitable for air travel and airport security? A: Yes. Its compact size fits easily in a carry-on or personal item. Watches are permitted in cabin baggage; we recommend keeping luxury timepieces with you rather than checking them in. At security, place the case in a tray or request a hand inspection if preferred.
Q: Is the case waterproof or magnetically shielded? A: No. Crafted in leather with a suede-lined interior and brass hardware, the case is not waterproof and does not provide magnetic shielding. Keep it dry, avoid rain, and store away from strong magnets and electronics. A small silica gel sachet can help manage humidity during storage.
Q: How should I care for the Guccissima leather and suede lining? A: Wipe leather with a soft, dry cloth and keep it away from oils, cosmetics, and prolonged sunlight to minimise colour fading. Avoid over-conditioning; if needed, use a specialist leather care product sparingly. Refresh the suede lining with a gentle suede brush or a clean lint roller and avoid liquid cleaners. Store the case loosely closed with the cushion in place to maintain its shape.
Q: Will the brass hardware tarnish over time? A: Yes—brass naturally develops a warm patina. If you prefer a brighter look, gently buff the metal with a dry microfibre cloth. Avoid liquid polishes near leather; a tiny amount of microcrystalline wax can be applied to the metal only to slow patina formation. Patina is considered normal and desirable on vintage pieces.
Q: How do I place my watch on the cushion without stressing the strap? A: For bracelets, close the clasp around the cushion so it’s snug but not tight. For leather straps, fasten to a comfortable hole to avoid stretching. Position the watch so the crystal doesn’t press against the case’s buckle hardware when closed.
Q: Does it fit large diver or chronograph watches? A: Many modern divers and chronographs fit, but very large cases (typically above about 45–46 mm or unusually thick) may be tight depending on lug-to-lug length and strap setup. If your watch is oversized, measure before purchase or contact us with dimensions for guidance.
Q: Is the cushion removable and can it be cleaned? A: Yes, the cushion is removable for easier fitting and airing. Minor marks on suede cushions are common with use; gently brush the nap to lift surface dust and allow to air in a dry place. Avoid wet cleaning on suede.
Q: What is included and how is authenticity ensured? A: This vintage piece includes a box as listed under Accessories. Every item at A Retro Tale is authenticated by our in-house experts using multi-point checks of materials, construction, hardware and stamps; we stand behind the authenticity of all items we sell.
