Hi all.

I have a "Perry Greaves" in my collection, that I have been unable to find any information on the "Company" or date timepiece!

Any assistance would be gratefully received, personal knowledge or where to possibly look!

Thanks.

Roy.

Roy,
it looks like a "generic Swiss movement", I'd guess from around the 60's/70's. Since the case is 9K, it's probably been made for the UK market. Also the brand name is unknown to me, I'd guess it may have been a "designer style of name " which was made specifically for a UK chain of jewelery/department stores.

Thanks Dave.

I shall catalogue timepiece as you so descriptively describe.

Roy.

Received this eMail today...

===================

"I just found your website by accident and saw a guy called Roy was trying to find out more information about a Perry Greaves Watch he had, this bog was from 2006…a long time ago!

But I also have a P.G. watch of my Father`s and it has the receipt on the box, Perry Greaves Ltd Birmingham & Solihull is no longer in existence, the address used to be 1 Corporation Street, Birmingham 2 Telephone 0216435479, they were members of The National Association of Goldsmiths and apparently made very good watches. My Father`s watch was a long-service award.

I know it`s a long time since the blog was posted but maybe this will help Roy.

Regards
Liz"

Thanks you Liz!
