Vintage Pontiac International Railway Pocket Watch Set - For Restoration An authentic and highly collectible mid-20th century vintage railway (CFR/SNCB type) pocket watch set by the Swiss-Belgian brand Pontiac. This lot includes the pocket watch, an original vintage "Primus" style teardrop protective case, and a matching Figaro-link metal chain. The watch features a beautiful railway dial with a 24-hour military inner scale (red numerals) and a small seconds sub-dial at 6 o'clock. The back of the case is beautifully embossed with a detailed steam locomotive. The highlight of this timepiece is its high-quality Swiss movement: a robust, gilt-finished **Unitas 6497** caliber with 17 jewels and an Antichoc protection system. This caliber is highly sought after by watchmakers and collectors for its reliability and historical importance. * **Movement:** The watch is running, but it runs slow (loses time) and requires a full service (cleaning, oiling, and regulation). Sold explicitly for overhaul/restoration. * **Dial & Hands:** The dial is in very good original condition with clean Arabic numerals and intact luminous hands. * **Case:** Good vintage condition with minor surface wear and micro-scratches consistent with age and railway use. No major dents. * **Accessories:** * The yellow teardrop protective cover is included. The inner protective foam layer has degraded/yellowed due to age (normal for its period). * The metal Figaro chain with a spring-ring clasp is fully functional. ## Technical Specifications: * **Brand:** Pontiac International * **Type:** Mechanical / Manual Winding Railway Pocket Watch * **Movement/Caliber:** Unitas 6497 (Gilt finish, 17 Jewels, Antichoc) * **Dial Color:** Cream/Off-white with black numerals and red 24h markers * **Case Material:** Chrome-plated / Stainless Steel base * **Case Back:** Embossed Steam Locomotive design * **Country of Origin:** Switzerland / Benelux market Dimensions : 6 cm × 5 cm × 1.5 cm The product will be professionally packed and sent safely to your address by local post.
