SKU: 202312033943
We would like to introduce you to pocket watches from Swiss watch maker Paul Hemmeler.
This is a gold-plated and gunmetal case pocket watch that appears to be from around 1900.
The case is a beautiful combination of gold and black materials.
The crystal back has glass fitted into the inner lid, allowing you to see the movement without removing the lid.
It has no second hand and the dial is engraved with a coat of arms-like design.
It is unknown whether it has had an overhaul, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.
We hope this lovely antique watch will brighten your everyday life!
