Circa 1920 Antique Swiss Escasany pocket watch Niero decoration silver side thin case Good working condition
SKU: 202312033937
We would like to introduce you to some antique Swiss pocket watches.
This appears to be a watch sold by Casa Escasany, a jeweler in Buenos Aires.
It is a very labor-intensive product called a Niello case, which is made of a silver case inlaid with black alloy material.
The striped niello inlay is accented with a gold cartouche.
This watch is thin and light for its size, making it easy to handle.
It is unknown whether it has had an overhaul, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.
We hope this lovely antique watch will brighten your everyday life!
