Paul Ditisheim (1868 – 1945) was a watchmaker from Geneva, Switzerland. He started learning how to make watches with his family’s company, Vulcain until 1892. He then started his own brands, Solvil and Titus and sometimes he also used Ditis and his own name Paul Ditisheim.

Hi there, Gabriel Calle. I saw Paul Ditisheim watch with indian head. It’s too late, but… This watchpiece used golden coin 20 USD, caseback is reverse of it too. Sold for 1201 Euro in auction. I think it’s Paul Ditisheim’s antique caliber in new – very special – case. https://veryimportantlot.com/ru/lot/view/armbanduhr-sehr-seltene-und-hochfeine-munzuhr-pa-134315

Hello —
Do you know whether Paul Ditisheim ever made a repeater watch? I am considering buying a pocket repeater watch that only has “Chronometro Ingold” marked on the dial. There are no marks on the inside of the watch. Is it possible that they produced a pocket repeater watch with no markings that identify Paul Ditisheim – as he has done on some of his other watches.
Thank you very much for your help.
I have a Paul Deitisheim rose gold and diamond watch #002426 on back probably from the 1940 or 1950 looking for a vaklue to sell
