Description

1920s Lanco pocket watch by Langendorf.

Langendorf was a well respected Swiss watch making company and they traded for exactly 100 years from 1873. They used several brand names including Lanco, Larex and Lancyl.

The watch has a 15-jewel hand-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Lanco name and it is all protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 48mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel and it is in lovely condition, as is the glass with just a couple of minor marks.

The dial is in lovely condition, Breguet style hands in a blued-steel finish, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
