Cimega Acromatic Appraisal

Cimega Acromatic -25- Swiss Made Automatic Wristwatch

This is a vintage mid-century automatic wristwatch featuring a round gold-tone case, likely gold-plated or gold-filled, with integrated flared lugs. The centerpiece of the watch is a Champagne-colored dial embellished with a circular track of twenty-four small circular crystals or rhinestones set in pairs between the hour markers. Centered under the 12 o'clock position is a crown emblem, followed by the text 'CIMEGA', 'ACROMATIC', and '-25-', indicating a 25-jewel automatic movement. At the very bottom of the dial, the words 'SWISS MADE' are visible. The hands are a matching gold tone in a simple baton style. The watch is mounted on a textured black leather or faux-leather strap with a reptile-skin pattern. Regarding condition, the piece shows significant signs of age and wear; there is visible pitting and oxidation on the gold-tone case and lugs, significant scratching and 'crazing' on the acrylic crystal, and some discoloration on the dial surface. The crown at the 3 o'clock position appears original but shows wear. The style suggests an era roughly between the late 1950s and mid-1960s, a period when Swiss 'mystery' brands or smaller manufacturers often used decorative stone dials to appeal to the dress-watch market. The craftsmanship reflects a mass-market luxury aesthetic of that period.
