Antique 1920s Swiss Pocket Watch and Chain

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique 1920s Swiss pocket watch and chain.

The watch has a Swiss 13-jewel stem-winding movement which is working well.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated and was made by the Illinois Watch Case Company. Both the bezel and the back are a screw fitting, a nice sign of quality. The case is in nice condition with only light surface marking, nothing serious at all.

The glass lens is in good condition, as is the dial with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

The watch comes with a Churchill style watch chain, 26cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.

The watch and chain come in a new presentation box.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this 1920s Swiss Pocket Watch to the 1920s.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

During the 1920s, Swiss watchmakers transitioned towards cleaner, Art Deco-inspired dials featuring bold Arabic numerals, open-face configurations, and streamlined metal cases.

Pocket watches from this era typically feature brass, nickel, or gold-filled cases paired with enamel or painted metal dials, glass crystals, and tempered steel hands.

Authentic timepieces usually feature Swiss movement engravings, hallmark stamps on the interior case back, sub-seconds dials, and period-appropriate typography.

A pocket watch is styled by securing the T-bar of the Albert chain through a waistcoat buttonhole or jacket pocket, placing the watch case inside the pocket.

Store the timepiece in a dry environment, avoid overwinding the crown mechanism, and ensure the mechanical movement is inspected and lubricated periodically by a horologist.
