commented on Any love for Dunhill? ·

Hi guys,

Indeed I do own a Dunhill (pic attached).

The model is the Centenary, and it's powered by a manual wind ETA 2660 movement. It was manufactured in the early 90s as part of a four model range created to celebrate the brand's anniversary.

Indeed, as DCooke writes, Dunhill used at some point JLC movements but clearly not in this watch. Some of their watches also had cases made by Cartier which may have been the case here, although I don't think it's very likely.

From what I've read, Dunhill actually started as a manufacturer of watches for cars' dashboards... but most of it's history it's been a fashion and cigarette brand, with somewhat weak ties to the watch world.
