Around 1900 Antique TISSOT pocket watch Silver side case Cylinder escapement Works well
SKU: 170393157
We will introduce antique pocket watches from TISSOT, a historic watch manufacturer founded in 1853.
This is a silver case pocket watch that is believed to be from around 1900.
The movement uses an old cylinder escapement system.
Many antique clocks with cylinder escapements are in poor working order.
This still maintains excellent accuracy.
It is unknown whether it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.
We have uploaded videos to YouTube. Please use them as a reference for operation status, etc.
