AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Authentic set of 9 pocket watches and an antique period collar from the late 19th / early 20th century. This lot is intended for collectors of historical pieces, watchmakers for spare parts, or fans of vintage decoration.

Details and Lot Condition (Sold as is):
Mechanical Condition: The watches are sold untested and with no guarantee of operation. I am not an expert and I do not know which ones still run; they are offered as-found.
Physical Condition: Note that several watches no longer have their protective glass (crystal). The enamel dials show, for some, cracks (hairlines) or chips due to age.
Materials: The lot includes cases in Argentan and some models with proofs (likely solid silver). Intricate finishes, floral motifs and engravings “Cylinder eight rubies” or “Eclipse 10 Rubies.”
Accessories: Presence of period chains (chatelaines) and an old leather stand.
Important note for bidders:
This lot is sold strictly “as is” (AS IS). Please carefully review the detailed photos to note omissions (crystal, hands) and the overall condition before bidding. No claims will be accepted regarding technical functioning.
