Description from the seller

Rare solid brass table lighter with a Swiss mechanical watch by Jowissa – 17 jewels – Antimagnetic, integrated frontally into a geometric structure typical of 1960s design. A true collector's piece for enthusiasts of smoking accessories, vintage watchmaking, and modernist design.

It has an original dial, with signs of age. The entire body is made of brushed brass, with engraved lines and a very characteristic aesthetic of the mid-century period.
