Description

1930s Visible pocket watch and chain.

The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Visible, a brand name registered in 1922 by Arnold Bouverat-Jobin of Les Breuleux in Switzerland. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is the gold plated Star model from the English case manufacturer Aaron Dennison. The case is in very nice condition, as is the glass lens.

The dial is in lovely condition with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

The watch comes with a single chain, 31cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.

The watch and chain come in a new presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

Dealers Notes

ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (because of GPSR legislation, we no longer post items less than 100 years old to Europe, including Northern Ireland).

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.

We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.

Credit / debit card purchases up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.

FAQs

Pocket watches evolved significantly during the 20th century, transitioning from everyday essential timekeepers into functional jewellery and collectable items as wristwatches gained popularity.

Traditional pocket watches feature cases made from gold, gold-plated base metals, silver, or gunmetal, enclosing intricate brass mechanical movements and enamel dials.

Authentic pieces can be identified by examining the hallmarks on the case interior, the craftsmanship of the mechanical movement, and any serial numbers corresponding to known manufacturing eras.

A vintage pocket watch can be displayed on a desktop stand or within a glass bell jar on a mantelpiece to add a touch of historical interest to contemporary decor.

Pocket watches should be kept in a dry environment away from direct sunlight, wound carefully if mechanical, and serviced periodically by a professional horologist to maintain proper function.
