The present skeleton pocket watch by Tissot was probably manufactured during the 1980s in Switzerland. It has a crown wind movement and displays the hour and minute. The gilt doublé gold case is glassed on both sides. The silver enamel chapter ring is fitted with black Roman numerals and Louis XV hands.

The dial is marked with the manufacturer’s name of Tissot. The watch is in very good condition with only minimal wear. During a short-term test, the watch was fully functional, but long-term precision and regularity cannot be guaranteed. The case diameter is 24 mm.

Tissot

The Swiss luxury watch company Tissot from Le Locle in the Swiss canton of Neuchâtel was established in 1853 by Charles Félicien Tissot and his son Charles-Emile. Under Charles-Emile’s direction, were manufactured pocket watches with parts from Russia and the United States. In 1915, the company began producing wristwatches. Between 1920 and 1977, Tissot produced its own movements. (cko)
