Anyone have any information about a 1944 Precision with “Varini Locarno” on the face? Apparently Varini was a shop in Locarno Switzerland.

Sounds like a "private label" or "contract" watch.
The jeweler could put there name on any model they chose.
So, there is no way to identify the watch, by just giving the jewelers name.

Actually a Swiss Retailer from that era! Many outstanding pieces have had that co branding. Locarno is a town in Switzerland. Pics would be nice!
