Circa 1893 Antique Stauffer & Co. Pocket Watch, Silver Side Half Hunter, in good working order
SKU: 202405244314
We would like to introduce you to an antique pocket watch from Swiss Stauffer & Co.
Stauffer & Co. is a company that grew in the UK as a watch importer rather than a manufacturer.
We imported Swiss watches, mainly IWC, to the UK.
Most of the watches are from IWC, but I don't know which manufacturer this one is from.
This is a sterling silver half-hunter (demi-hunter) case watch from circa 1893, which allows you to read the time even with the lid closed.
It is unknown whether it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.
We hope that this once-in-a-lifetime encounter will be a special one!
