Elegant 14k Solid Gold Running Watch. Switzerland, Circa 1920

Stunning high-quality solid gold pocket watch with an elegant design. This watch is an antique piece made in Switzerland in the early 20th century (circa 1920). It is made of 14-carat solid gold and works perfectly: the movement has been cleaned and fine-tuned in order to guarantee it. The gold box is also very well preserved and boasts an attractive and sober design that turns this watch into a singularly contemporary piece. The watch bears several hallmarks in the ring and the rear cap that testify for the materials quality and origin. The box has a front cap with an engraved design composed of parallel vertical lines. It has a flat oval shape at the bottom, probably bound to show the owners engraved initials. Under this cap remains the white face with black Arab numbers and a secondary hand. The rear cap bears the same decoration as the front cap; if we open it, inside we will see several hallmarks indicating the carats (14 K), the origin (a hallmark with a squirrel corresponding to Switzerland) and the boxs serial number: 8081 13 and a number 2 below. Under the rear cap we find the dustcap, also made of solid gold, with series of beautiful inscriptions in its outer face. To the right we can see seven medals corresponding to different prizes awarded in fairs and events. There are also a series of French words that describe the movement, engraved in different types of lettering. The dustcap is also made of gold and bears the same hallmarks as the rear cap engraved in its inner face. Under it rests the gorgeous movement, with all its original component parts in perfect condition and working order. This awesome pocket watch is a very special piece for its quality, beautiful design and ancient age. It will be a magnificent gift for any lover of exclusive objects. Measurements: Width: 51 mm.
