Circa 1908 Antique Longines Pocket Watch, Engraved Silver Side Hunter Case, Good Working Condition, Chain Included
SKU: 202404264286
We will be introducing antique pocket watches from Longines, a long-established manufacturer founded in 1832.
This is a silver side hunter case pocket watch from around 1980.
The front and back are engraved with intricate floral motifs in the Art Nouveau style.
I believe this type of watch is made to order as each one has a different engraving.
The dial and movement are in good condition, and it comes with a thin silver Albert chain.
The overhaul history is unknown, but it is in good working order.
We hope this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one for you!
