Tiffany & Co. 14k Gold Open Face Pocket Watch, circa 1930

Signed Tiffany & Co., this slim open face pocket watch is the kind of quiet luxury a well-dressed gentleman carried in his waistcoat around 1930. The case is 14k yellow gold, smooth and polished with a squared bow at the top. The silvered dial is clean and minimal, with slender applied hour markers and fine gold hands, and the plain gold back is ready for a monogram or left beautifully bare.

At 40 mm it is small enough to wear, and that is exactly what we love about it. Hang it from a long gold chain and it becomes a working pendant with real history, a conversation piece that also tells time. It runs, and it is ready for its next chapter, on a chain or in a pocket.
