Cyma was founded in 1862 by the Schwob brothers Joseph and Theodore, in La Chaux-de-Fonds, the significant center for watch making in Switzerland.

Cyma gained recognition for its innovations and was granted several patents over the years. One notable innovation was the introduction of the "Cymaflex" shock-resistant system in the 1930s. This system was designed to protect the movement from shocks and vibrations, contributing to the durability of the watches.

Cyma watches were known for their precision, and the brand received awards for its chronometric performance in competitions. The brand's commitment to accuracy and quality contributed to its reputation in the watchmaking industry.

Cyma produced a variety of watches, including chronographs, dress watches, and military watches. Some vintage Cyma watches from the mid-20th century are particularly sought after by collectors.

Like many Swiss watch brands, Cyma experienced changes in ownership and corporate structure over the years. The brand has been associated with different groups, including the Tavannes Watch Co.

In the modern era, Cyma continues to produce watches that blend traditional Swiss craftsmanship with contemporary design. The brand offers a range of collections, catering to both classic and sporty preferences.

Here we have the stunning and unique Cyma Titanium, Model 333 with Arabic Numerals and Skeleton Hands.

This Cyma Titanium was produced as a sports timepiece that can also be used throughout the day.

The timepiece was carefully stripped and the dial was meticulously cleaned, its electronic movement cleaned and touched up, demagnetised, and its battery replaced on 9 April 2024. It should be able to operate unhindered until the next battery change thereby providing both owners peace of mind.

Its well preserved silver case was also given a good clean-up and rub while maintaining its sharp lines and sexy curves. Most age imperfections were removed without compromising the case shape and colour. The dome shaped crystal is original and was given a good rub as well albeit miniscule scratches are still present but unnoticeable.

The unsigned crown is located at its traditional 3H position between crown guards yet is easily accessible.

The case width and thickness are approximately 37mm (without crown) and 41.5mm respectively. The lug width is 20mm and the bracelet can accommodate wrists up to 20cm thereabouts; hence, this watch is suitable for men and the modern women.

To the best of our knowledge and expertise when overhauling the timepiece, the watch is 100% original Cyma components from this particular watch. No parts were replaced with aftermarket parts or modified thereby it is considered in near MINT condition.

Even though the seals and gaskets are present, this timepiece has not been water-resistant tested due to its age.

The pictures provided shows the watch case's in mint condition and well maintained. It has also been demagnetised to improve parts reliability, minimise wear & tear, and improve accuracy. The only drawback is the lack of documentation but the original box accompanies the timepiece.

Bear in mind that both watches have seen many of the previous owners’ ups and downs in life, and should be cherished and well taken care of for the next generational couple to savour such engineering beauty.

Yes, there are many other same models in the market, BUT almost all are not in the same quality condition and as well maintained as what you see here. Hence, it is a no-brainer that this one-of-a-kind timepiece set will make an extremely beautiful birthday present for that special someone!

This is an extremely sporty and rare Cyma Titanium in excellent condition; so, be unique and wear something that is almost impossible to source or purchase.

This is a must-have for the Cyma die-hard fan, and in fact, any serious watch collector!
