Seller's Story
We are specialized in pocket watches. We have designed the clock room of the Asturias Railway Museum, we advise collectors and we have our own workshop. We try to ensure that our clients are always satisfied. We ask buyers to be well informed about their purchase, since these types of watches, generally more than one hundred years old, are not new objects, even if they are in good working order. Most are collectible watches and the buyer must know their use and handling, although we are always willing to offer maximum information. More than a thousand watches sold on Catawiki.
