AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Elegant Swiss pocket watch F. Bachschmid, an interesting piece of clockmaking from the late 19th century, around the 1890s.

The watch incorporates a manually wound mechanical movement, signed F. Bachschmid, with the inscriptions “Patent 4554” and “Safety Mainspring”, elements especially interesting from a historical and mechanical point of view.

It features a refined white enamel dial with Roman numerals, outer minute track and a small seconds subdial located at 6 o'clock. Its classic hands and overall aesthetics preserve all the character of pocket watchmaking of the era.

The movement, with an attractive golden finish, allows a clear view of the regulator A/R, the manufacturer's signature, the patent indication and the different marks present on the mechanism.

At the edge of the case is engraved the number 4124, in addition to small manufacturing marks.

The watch has been tested and works perfectly. The winding, the movement and the small seconds hand function correctly.

An attractive piece for both antique watch collectors and enthusiasts of historic Swiss mechanical movements.
