This high-quality, richly decorated 18k gold hunter case pocket watch was manufactured for the Argentine market in the early 20th century. The massive Savonnette has a solid total weight of approximately 118.5 grams and a diameter of 56.5mm. This complicated watch has an additional function like a minute repetition. The repetition gets triggered by a slide on the case. Especially noteworthy at this pocket pocket watch is the beautiful, magnificent case in massive execution. It is richly engraved on all sides. On the front side of the case is the mythological depiction of the peace goddess Pax and the war god Mars, which are both surrounded by floral elements. The back shows a central musical composition of harp, notes and branches. The gentleman's pocket watch is accompanied with an original mahagony box with inlaid mother of pearl shield.
