Around 1900 Antique TISSOT pocket watch Silver side case Cylinder escapement Works well
SKU: 170393157
This is a pocket watch with a silver case that seems to be from around 1900.
The movement is an old method of the cylinder escapement method.
Antique clocks with cylinder escapements often have poor movement,
This one is still very accurate.
The overhaul history is unknown, but the balance swing is good and it is ticking and moving well.
