Item Description A beautiful moonphase & day/date calendar pocket watch with a very interesting history. The watch was bought from an Athenian watch dealer who supported that the watch belonged to and was specially made for Nicholas the 2nd of Russia. Unfortunately there are no documents accompanying the watch that would certify this claim. It is therefore only sold as a stunning pocket watch in an amazing condition for its age.

The days of the week and date shown by a single hand and the month in a rectangular aperture. The number of the days in each month are also given and the outer ring indicating the day can be rotated by a thumb wheel to align the correct day with the date. The date is changed automatically by a pawl on the movement. The watch comes in its original leather case that is decorated with a blue silk sash like the one worn by the Tsar.
