Polhem - 1950-1959

Overview
This is a very well-preserved Polhem mechanical pocket watch presented together with a period green presentation box. The set has a clean and elegant mid-century look, with a white dial, black Arabic numerals, a red 13 to 24 hour scale, and a small seconds register at 6. The silver-tone case is simple and refined, while the light satin-lined interior of the box gives the whole lot a pleasing display presence. The main appeal is the strong overall condition of the watch together with its retailer-marked box and original Polhem tag, which give the set a notably complete character.
