Description from the seller

Overview
This is an antique mechanical pocket watch marked Viking, with a case diameter of approximately 49.97 mm and a watch weight of approximately 83.95 g. It has a silver-tone metal case, and the inner cover is marked Pansar-Boett, Rostfritt Sandviken-Stål, and Viking, giving the watch a clear Nordic market character. The dial has an aged light-coloured surface, blue Arabic numerals, an outer 13–24 hour scale, and a subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock. Its key selling point is the Viking marking together with the clearly marked Sandviken stainless steel case.
