Doxa - 1371032 - 1900-1949

Overview
This is an antique Doxa mechanical pocket watch with a clean and very classic Swiss character. The white dial with black Arabic numerals and small seconds at 6 gives it an open, balanced, and highly traditional appearance. The silver case remains understated yet attractive, with fine engine turning on the back and a central vacant cartouche that adds period charm. The watch is offered together with an old pocket watch chain, making the lot feel more complete for both display and collecting. The standout feature is the richly engraved Doxa award wording inside the cuvette, which gives the piece strong historical character.
