Description from the seller
Remontoir Ancre de Précision – Swiss Pocket Watch – Not Working – For Restoration
Offered is an antique Swiss open-face pocket watch featuring a white enamel dial with stylized Arabic numerals and ornate Louis XV-style hands. The movement is marked "Made in Switzerland", while the inner cover is decorated with the inscription "Remontoir Ancre de Précision", a traditional designation referring to a precision lever escapement rather than a brand name.
The watch is fitted with a hand-wound mechanical movement but is not in working order. It is offered as a restoration project, for spare parts, or as a collectible display piece.
Condition:
Swiss manufacture
Hand-wound mechanical movement
Marked "Made in Switzerland"
"Remontoir Ancre de Précision" inner cover
White enamel dial with stylized Arabic numerals
Ornate original hands
Open-face pocket watch
Not running – sold for restoration or parts
Decorative engine-turned case with central cartouche
General wear, scratches, patina, and oxidation consistent with age
Dial and crystal show light age-related wear
Please examine the photographs carefully, as they form an integral part of the description. The watch is sold in its present condition without any guarantee of functionality or completeness.
