Brand: Watex
Model: Pocket watch (Lépine / Open Face style)
Gender: Men / Unisex
Period: 60s / 70s (estimated)
Movement: Manual-wind mechanical movement (Swiss Made, 17 jewels, anti-shock Incabloc, antimagnetic).
Case material: Metal with a gold finish. The inside of the case back features a charming and unexpected decorative engraving with floral motifs and a bird/eagle.
Case diameter: Classic pocket-watch size.
Crystal: Vintage acrylic/plexiglass.
Dial: White, extremely clean and highly legible.

Description for the buyer:
A classic Swiss pocket timepiece signed Watex, in the traditional Lépine configuration (open-face dial without a front cover). It is a watch that captures attention thanks to the delightful dial details, particularly the contrast between the black and blue numerals and the refined Breguet-style hands. Equipped with a reliable Swiss mechanical movement with 17 jewels and an Incabloc shock system, it is a perfect piece for those who want to start a pocket watch collection or seek a very classy dandy accessory for a waistcoat or formal suit, already provided with its chain and gift box.
It will be carefully packaged and shipped with insured and trackable mail.
Shipping: Tracked and insured with DHL or Fedez
Any customs duties are the buyer's responsibility.
