Pocket Watch: Antique Doxa Pocket Watch & Chain

The watch has a stem-winding movement, signed Doxa, which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has a little unevenness and some scratching. The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is nickel. The front and sides are in good condition, some unevenness to the hinged case back. The glass lens is in good condition. The dial has blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers. There is a little damage between 4 and 5, and some very faint hairlines. The watch comes with an unusual single chain, 29cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. Also included is a 1950s fob marking the Holy Year (Jubilee Year) of 1950 as proclaimed by Pope Pius XII. The watch and chain come in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland). Please contact us regarding international shipping costs.
