Story & Heritage BWC – Buttes Watch Company – is a historic Swiss watch manufacturer whose origins date to the early 20th century. The company became known for producing reliable mechanical wristwatches that combined traditional Swiss watchmaking with practical, contemporary designs. This Courage model captures the visual language of the 1960s particularly well. Its oversized Arabic numerals, subsidiary seconds display and warm aged dial create a distinctive appearance that differs from the more restrained watches of the period. The Incabloc marking is another characteristic detail of vintage Swiss watchmaking. The shock-protection system was designed to protect the delicate balance staff against impacts, helping make mechanical wristwatches more suitable for everyday use. With its 35 mm case, expressive dial and authentic patina, this BWC Courage is an appealing example of practical Swiss mechanical watchmaking from the mid-20th century. A characterful vintage piece for collectors of BWC watches and classic Swiss mechanical timepieces. Internal Reference Number - FLO-149
