Description from the seller
Pocket watch "Rosskopf Frères Patent" - Manual winding
In the auction, a fascinating vintage pocket watch signed Rosskopf Frères Patent. This timepiece represents a classic example of historic watchmaking, known for its robustness and for the 24-hour double-dial. The case is made of Argentan and houses a manual-winding mechanical movement that is currently functioning. For complete transparency, note that the watch is currently without the protective glass and the enamel dial shows some edge chipping. It is an excellent piece for vintage watch enthusiasts or for someone seeking a simple restoration project. The attached photographs should be considered an integral part of the description.
