Description from the seller
Overview
This is a classic Zenith mechanical pocket watch with a strong and dignified Swiss character. The white dial, large Arabic numerals, and subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock create an open and highly legible layout, while the ornate hands add refined period charm. The 0.800 silver open-face case has a clean and elegant appearance, with fine engine-turned decoration and a central monogram-style cartouche to the back. Offered together with an old pocket watch chain, the watch forms a complete and appealing antique set. Its strongest appeal lies in the signed Zenith movement, the award and technical inscriptions on the inner cover, and the complete presentation with silver case and matching old chain.
