1930s Windsor Exhibition Pocket Watch.

1920 - 1940
Description

1930s Windsor Exhibition pocket watch.

The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which goes for around five days. The barrel which sits over the movement is beautifully detailed with information about the movement.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel and it is nicely decorated. The inside of the hinged case back is signed Jagot W Co, Wear Ever Quality, Swiss. The Jagot Watch Company was owned by Joseph A Gottlieb, a New York based importer, with the name Jagot being formed from his initials.

The acrylic lens is in good condition (some natural light reflection showing in the photos).

The dial is signed Windsor Exhibition, a brand name designed to appeal to potential UK customers. The dial is in lovely condition with original blued steel hands, gilded detail and exposed balance, which shows the movement is also signed with the name Windsor.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

FAQs

An 8-day exhibition pocket watch is a mechanical timepiece designed with an oversized mainspring barrel capable of powering the movement for eight continuous days on a single wind. The term exhibition refers to designs featuring cut-out dials or visible balance wheels that allow the internal escapement mechanism to be observed while running.

During the 1930s, open-faced pocket watch cases were commonly crafted from nickel-silver, chrome-plated base metals, or gold-filled brass, often embellished with machine-turned or hand-engraved foliage motifs. Dials frequently combined fired enamel with gilt brass Chapter rings and steel hands.

Authentic period 8-day timepieces usually feature dual-language power reserve markings such as 8 JOURS and 8 DAYS on the dial, along with Swiss Made stamps on the movement or face. Examining the movement reveal a large central spring barrel structure and jewel settings consistent with early 20th-century horological manufacturing.

Pocket watches can be displayed on brass or glass watch stands beneath glass domes on desks, mantelpieces, or bedside tables. They are also frequently mounted inside shadow boxes alongside antique chains and horological tools as framed wall displays.

Keep mechanical watches in a dry environment with controlled temperatures to prevent moisture accumulation and oxidisation. The movement should be wound gently without forcing the crown, and periodic professional servicing by a horologist every three to five years is recommended to clean and lubricate internal gears.
