  HEBDOMAS SKELETON, Hand-Engraved Art, 8 DAYS, 
POCKET WATCH MOVEMENT Circa 1900s

This elegant wrist watch was converted from antique wrist watch.
Antique wrist watch movement from HEBDOMAS  produced circa 1910s (HEBDOMAS, one of the greatest and oldest Swiss watch brands, started its activities in 1888 in La Chaux-de-Fonds (Switzerland). The name Hebdomas recalls the festivities of Ebdomee, held in Sparta, Croton and Mileto, which celebrated the birth of Apollo on the seventh day of the month.) in a New Hand-Engraved & Gilding Art Stainless Steel case. Gently curved elements  are produced with chip removal techniques using sharp burins that not only incise the stainless steel but actually "lift" the decorations out of the stainless steel.
This project has given a new life for this antique watch.
It’s an ideal combination of antique and modern styles.
This watch Would Make A Great Addition To Your watch Collection.

MOVEMENT:

Note: Antique watches generally experience an error of up to 5-7 minutes a day. Any accuracy of +- 5 minutes is very good.
