Swiss 14k Rose Gold Hunting Cased Pocket Watch with Chain

Partially verified

This Swiss hunting-cased pocket watch, dating to approximately 1910, is constructed from 14-karat rose gold. It measures 33 mm in diameter, corresponding to a 0-size specification. The case features machine-turned finishing on both sides, with a decorative central shield bearing engraved initials, potentially 'CA'. The watch is accompanied by a matching 58 cm curb-link rose gold chain. The dial is white porcelain with black Roman numerals and blue steel spade-pattern hands. Its mechanical movement is an eight-jewel cylinder escapement type with gold-plated finger bridges. The watch utilizes a stem-wind and pin-set mechanism for operation and adjustment. Both the watch case and the included chain are marked for gold purity. The auction description reports that the movement is in good working order, while the case exhibits minor indentations not clearly visible in the provided photographs.
