Men's Vintage Full Copper Hand-Wind Mechanical Second&24hours Sub-dials Pocket Watch in Box

I am very impressed so far. I have only had the watch for a few days, and I have only owned one other mechanical watch before. However, this watch was much more than I expected. First of all, the build looks and feels very solid. It is all metal and glass, not plastic is visible. The face has a finely screened details, not the blurry low detail mess I see on some watches. The hands are finely detailed as well, with the serpentine style adding a lot to the antique feel of this watch. I am very impressed with the appearance. The watch is aged to look like it is antique. The brass has a worn look to it. The back is textured with dark aging in the crevices, giving the feel of a piece that has been in many hands for many years. The texture even appears worn in a few places as an antique piece of brass would after being used for many years. It looks like a used but very well maintained watch. It even looks like there is a bit of oxidation at the base of the stem, just as an antique piece would have. The chain feels antique as well. The links are made of a folded piece of brass preserving the antique appearance of the watch. It has a clasp on both ends so it can be detached from the watch if desired. EDIT: the lobster claw clasp on the chain has broken; the spring came out and not it does not stay closed. I am not concerned as I didn't really use the chain anyway. As would be expected for a watch from the period this one appears to be from, there is no illumination on the dial or hands. The styling is period appropriate without being gaudy. This is a mechanical watch. I don't know what the movement is, but it is beating at 21,600 beats per hour or 6 beats per second. The two sub dials on the front are functional as well (something I wasn't expecting given the price and from the description). The left dial is a 24 hour dial, making it clear from a glance if it is morning or evening. The right dial is another second hand (it has seconds on the center and seconds on the sub dial), though the two second hands are not synchronized. Power reserve is adequate. Twenty turns of the crown (which is about all it will accept) will give it 29 hours of run time, which is standard for most mechanical watches. It is automatically winding as well. Wearing it for a day gave me another 5 hours of power. While this is not enough to power the watch on its own, I was carrying the watch in my pants pocket (that little one I never used to use) and so it didn't get as much movement as a wristwatch would get. It would be enough to carry the watch over for a little while longer if I forget to wind it in the morning. My watch looses around 26 seconds per day as measured by my time tracking app. By far not chronometer grade, but very acceptable for my purposes especially given the price. Overall, I am very impressed with this watch. It is exactly what I was looking for, a watch to go with my portable sundial/compass and sextant, all in brass and all for a nautical theme. EDIT: So I just accidentally dropped my watch. It bounced off my knee, hit a wooden chair, bounced off my desk drawers and hit the wall landing on the carpet. Not a scratch, and the watch is still ticking. I am not saying you should regularly do what I did (my heart just about stopped while this was happening) but this watch can take some abuse.

I'm a collector of mechanical watches. Some are over 100 years old, and several newer ones that are inexpensive, but unique in their design. Most of the newer ones that are not self-winding have identical Chinese movements, which are somewhat lacking in accuracy and durability. That's not the case with this watch. The clockworks are surrounded by a Teflon spacer. and there is no visible manufacturer information on the clockworks. Nonetheless, nothing about this watch looks or feels cheap. the stem feels solid when winding, and smooth when setting, the watch has some weight to it due to the thick metal casing, and the crystal is made of real glass. After several weeks of constant use it hasn't lost or gained a single minute, which is rare for any but the the most expensive mechanical watches. It is advertised as being solid copper, but it appears to be brass; no complaints here. The chain clasp doesn't clip onto a belt loop, but rather hooks onto the chain itself, much like the pocket watch chains of bygone eras. If I have any premature failure of any kind then I will post an update, but as it stands now I'd be impressed with this watch it If I had paid 3 times for it what I did. UPDATE: After a year of constant winding, use, and carrying the watch works as good as new. The antique patina has grown even more attractive with time. I'm pleased to say that I would purchase this watch again; in fact, I've already bought another one as a gift for a friend. It's a beautiful and accurate time piece that I expect many years of good use out of. If you want one then my experience reflects that it's a good buy and a wonderful gift.

I do like the looks of this watch, but im having issues. I have kept an eye on it, checking it every hour and it seems to keep good time. I give it 3 or 4 winds each time. The problem it when I get up in the morning it has stopped at about 11 after midnight. It's done this twice now so I will be watching it. I guess you can't expect much for the price. Time will tell. Update... do not waste your money. This watch is a POS! Stops constantly, you have to shake it to get it to work again. I have cheaper watches that work better!

I've had this watch for over 6months now. The glass dome gives it good weight. And, has not scratched. It tool me a couple of weeks to get the correct rythem so I wasn't over or under winding it. Pros - Good weight and nice color keeps decent time and no mechanical issues so far. Cons - The chain that comes with it is too short, needs to be longer. The round clasp on the chain is both cheap and weak. The other clasp is decent. The skeleton hands can make it hard to read in low light. The mini second hand dial is reduntant and the mini 24 hour dial is useless, much too small to read. it would be a much better watch without the mini dials and with regular hands instead of skeleton hands. The one I recieved gains a little over a minute a day.

I've not had this watch for too long yet, probably about two weeks. But I have worn it constantly, every day, since it arrived. First, the watch is accurate, gaining approximately 30 seconds per day, about standard for a mechanical pocket watch. Second, case quality: The case is surprisingly substantial, and it is finished to give it a worn, antique appearance. The crystal is not the cheap, plastic type so common on lower-priced watches, it is a good, thick glass, which does tend to scratch easily, but if the watch is placed in a pocket facing the body and not outward, that should protect it from any scratching. Third, the watch feels amazingly like a vintage pocket watch. It has a real weight to it, similar to the old American Hamiltons or the Elgins. It feels good in the hand. Fourth, there are two second hands on the watch. What surprised me is they are perfectly synced to each other. There is a 24-hour hand on it as well, but I cannot attest to its accuracy, because my aging eyes do not allow me to see it, but there are instructions included with the watch that tell you how to set it. I just didn't bother. Overall, my feeling is that $35 is a ridiculously great price for this watch. I can offer some advice, however: In reading other reviews on this watch, there were some complaints about it I would like to address, having grown up with mechanical watches and conducted minor repairs on them. A mechanical watch is probably the greatest engineering feat in history, and because of that, any mechanical pocket watch is a very delicate and precision machine. If you do not handle it carelessly and jumble it around, the hands should not fall off of it. If you wind it slowly, and gently, it should not overwind. Winding a watch is a skill that most today don't know very well. With this watch, as you wind it, it will gently spring back after each wind. Feel for that. It increases the more you wind it. If you gently wind it, you will feel when it is completely wound, because it won't wind any further. When you first wind the watch, count the number of winds you do until it does not wind anymore. On mine, it is 50 winds. So, every morning when I wind it, I stop at 49 and I do not worry that I've overwound it. Over-winding a watch will break the mainspring. If you take care of this watch and respect it as the fine, precise instrument it is, it will last you years. Buy the watch.

I have had this watch for about 6 months now and I am really pleased with it. It has substantial weight and has a nice vintage look. It keeps pretty good time, I need to adjust it every 3 or 4 days which is not uncommon for mechanical watches. Given its great price I can't believe how nice it is.

I've had the pocket watch since March 23, it had no issues nor broken pieces I personally have zero complaints, but unfortunately in my case as of recently the crown of the watch was broken by someone I knew, now I can't use the watch anymore since I can wind it now, I'm heartbroken.

Nice to have when reenacting with it's vintage look. Better than looking at smartphone while in 18th century.

muy bonito reloj, es retro, una buena opcion de compra

This pocket watch is handwound, No need for batteries, keeps excellent time, barely hear it ticking. These types of watches last for years, the old one that I had was from the 1820's and it just gave out a few weeks ago, And was owned in the family since new. Excellent craftsmanship, and it looks like it was made in the 1800's, very classy, would definately reccomend it to anyone.👍👍⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🙂🇨🇦 Update, I have owned this pocket watch for a while now and I have had zero issues with it so far, it works as good as the one that I replaced with this one, keep 'er wound every twenty four hours and you have one heck of a pocket watch, and it is a excellent value for this pocket watch.

Es ist eine schöne Taschenuhr, aber man muss sie alle 4 Stunden aufziehen sonst bleibt die Uhr stehen, 24 Stunden müsste sie schon laufen

Estou com o relógio há poucas semanas, até o momento o funcionamento está perfeito. O relógio é belíssimo, uma peça magnífica. Feito na China, espero que dure muito porque é belíssimo vê-lo em funcionamento.

très jolie montre . correspond parfaitement à la description . Look ancien .
