Antique Swiss Moonphase Triple Calendar Pocket Watch Runs
Posted on October 31, 2011 | Category: antique pocket watches
This is a super-nice and clean original triple-calendar
moonphase watch. It is open face, stem wind and set, and measures 50mm in
diameter. The case is gunmetal, and has a hinged double caseback. The case is
excellent, with nice original finish and no dents or damage. The bow is still
tight. The porcelain dial is excellent, and has no hairlines or chips. This
watch has 4 small dials. One each for day, date, month, and the last for
moonphase with second hand! The dial and movement are each signed
"SWISS". The movement is gilt, with an anchor escapement, and
jeweled. It also marked with the Swiss patent number "6776". The
movement is in excellent condition and a strong runner. But, I have not had it
cleaned or serviced so I cannot guarantee it as reliable. The calendar
functions are also good, but this was considered a novelty watch when it was
made, so I cannot guarantee the calendar dials function correctly. This is
overall as nice and original as they come. Buyer pays shipping & handling,
$5 in US. Foreign bidders please email
me for shipping cost. Thank you.
