Antique Swiss SOLETTA Equestrian Sculpture Silver-Plated Hunter Case Pocket Watch, Good Working Order

This antique hunter-case (lid-covered) pocket watch was made by the Swiss watch brand SOLETTA in the early 20th century..

Both sides of the silver-plated case feature dynamic equestrian show-jumping scenes in raised relief.
