Description
I am pleased to offer from my private collection this extremely rare this exceptional antique pocket watch was crafted circa 1900 specifically for presentation within the imperial court of Tsar Nicholas II. The detailed silver niello case is adorned with vivid alpine hunting scenes, showcasing a marksman on one side and a mountain goat on the reverse — symbols of nobility and sport. The white enamel dial features Roman numerals with an inset photographic image of Tsar Nicholas II aiming a rifle, further emphasizing the watch’s ceremonial and prestigious intent. The refined gold hands add a touch of luxury to the functional beauty of this piece. Inside, the movement is of the highest quality, with 15 jewels and a visible lever escapement — proudly marked Remontoir Ancre Ligne Droite, 15 Rubis, Levées Visibles, Qualité Supérieure. A medal engraving from the 1899 Grand Prix in Thun, Switzerland, attests to its award-winning craftsmanship. Hallmarked and numbered, the watch is housed in a solid silver case measuring 50mm in diameter and remains in perfect working order — a testament to its superior engineering and preservation. A rare and culturally significant timepiece with clear links to imperial prestige, military sport, and artisanal excellence.
