We will be introducing antique pocket watches from Longines, a long-established manufacturer founded in 1832.

A silver-sided hunter case pocket watch circa 1901.
The case back is engraved with extremely fine detail, with a lion holding a cartouche in the center.
The front cover is engraved with a symbolic mark of a different design than the back cover.
This is a very beautiful pocket watch with intricate engravings on the sides and around the crown.
It is unknown whether it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.


We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
