Description

Antique Roskopf Cronometro Moderno 'wedding' pocket watch.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Regulateur AG.

The watch measures 55mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is white metal, probably nickel, and it is beautifully patterned all the way around including an historical marriage scene to the back. The case is in lovely condition.

The watch glass is in lovely condition.

The dial is signed Cronometro Moderno, 1a, Echappament Roskopf (Roskopf escapement). The dial looks good to the naked eye, if viewed through a loupe then there are a couple of very faint hairlines. The dial has a great look with pin-set ornate hands, Roman numerals, red Arabic 24 hour numbers and also outer minute markers.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
