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

Roamer, established in Solothurn, Switzerland in 1888, manufactured mechanical timepieces recognised for precision engineering and durable case designs, expanding international production throughout the mid-20th century.

Timepieces from this era commonly featured chrome-plated or stainless steel cases, acrylic crystals, brass movement plates, and enamelled or painted metal dials.

Authenticity is verified by checking for maker hallmarks on the dial and movement, inspecting caliber reference stamps, and ensuring movement signatures correspond to manufacturer records.

A mechanical pocket watch can be worn as a functional accessory using an Albert chain attached to a waistcoat or jacket, or presented as a display item inside a protective glass dome.

Mechanical pocket watches require routine servicing every three to five years by a qualified watchmaker, protection from moisture and magnetic fields, and careful manual winding without over-tensioning the mainspring.
