Up for bid is a one of a kind pocket watch. This was made by a master watchmaker during training at a prestigious school for watch making Technicum La Chaux De-Fonds. As I understand it, students must produce a watch before becoming master watchmakers and graduating...like creating a thesis for watchmakers. I believe this dates to the 1930's. This is a very special pocket watch and they seldom come up for sale as they are usually passed down through family generations. It truly is one of a kind. Has a beautiful 12 and 24 hr dial black and blue numeral. Case is silver and hallmarked with metal purity as well as Techincum hallmark. I timed it for about 12 hours and it kept time but I cannot guarantee accuracy as I do not know when it was last serviced. Overall, a gorgeous piece. The case measures 51.3mm across.
