Neil 21 Prix, Men’s Manual Wind Vintage Watch, 1981
Fine dark radial lines draw the eye across the brushed silver dial of this Neil 21 Prix from 1981. Polished rectangular markers and slim baton hands keep the layout restrained, with subsidiary seconds in the lower dial. A softly shaped 35 mm cushion case frames the display, and a new black leather strap completes the hand-wound men’s watch.
Brushed Silver Dial and Radial Lines
The slender dark lines extend inward from the hour positions, adding a graphic detail to the clean silver surface. Applied polished rectangular markers define the hours. NEIL and 21 PRIX occupy the upper half, with ANTIMAGNETIC beneath the small-seconds display.
Slim silver-tone hour and minute hands match the applied markers. Subsidiary seconds occupy the lower part of the dial, keeping the center free of a sweeping seconds hand. The dial presents cleanly, and the watch is in excellent overall vintage condition.
A Softly Shaped Cushion Case
The silver-tone case sits between round and tonneau forms, with a broad, gently shaped body around a round dial opening. A narrow polished bezel follows the opening rather than the outer case outline. The exterior remains clean and presentable, with light wear.
It measures 35 mm across and 41 mm lug to lug, with an 18 mm strap connection. A compact ridged crown at 3 o’clock provides a grip for winding and setting. No clearly legible crown signature is visible.
Hand-Wound Movement and New Leather
The manual-wind movement powers hours and minutes with subsidiary seconds. The 21 Prix designation identifies the model.
The new plain black leather strap has light contrasting stitching near the lugs and an adjustable fit. Its simple surface keeps the dial’s radial pattern prominent. The strap is a replacement, separate from the original watch components.
This Neil retains its original watch components and is fully serviced and fully operational. It comes with a 12-month warranty and no box or papers.
