Produced in 1908, this Antique Hampden "Dueber Grand" Pocket Watch combines classic American craftsmanship with stylish design details. Featuring a 17-jewel pendant-set movement and a nickel finish, this 12-size timepiece is housed in a gold-filled case with graceful wear from years of service. While it runs well and presents beautifully, it would benefit from a routine service to ensure lasting performance. A wonderful example of early 20th-century watchmaking with both aesthetic and functional appeal.
