Antique Pocket Watch – Small Seconds At 6 O'clock – Early 20th Century

A charming antique pocket watch with a white enamel dial adorned with gilt numerals and a small seconds subdial at 6 o'clock. The original, finely designed hands and luminous dial reflect the refinement of early 20th-century French or Swiss watchmaking. The case, marked "9A3 patented SGDG 15831 70," confirms a patented model, typical of watches produced for the French market before 1960. Displaying an antique patina and some traces of corrosion (verdigris) around the crown, this piece possesses an authentic character and a beautiful period presence. • Estimated period: circa 1900–1930 • Markings: “9A3 patented SGDG 15831 70” (serial number and patent reference) • Case: patinated metal, localized corrosion around the crown • Dial: white enamel, gilt numerals, small seconds at 6 o'clock • Hands: original, decorative style • Movement: unopened/untested (to be checked by a watchmaker) • Condition: good for its age — stained dial, visible patina and corrosion, but complete and harmonious overall.
