This is a watch from the Services Watch Co, Ltd at one time based in Bede St, Leicester England.

The watch is seventeen jeweled, using an EB (Bettlach) 8020 calibre. The case is 35 mm, 10 micron gold plated with fancy lugs. Quite a good looking watch, from the 1960’s I suspect.

I believe that Services were assemblers rather than a maker of watches, I have seen Services watches with diverse movements including UMF/ Ruhla M series. Sadly, there is very little of the history of this company available.
