Stuhrling Original Men's Skeleton Pocket Watch

This vintage-inspired pocket watch is layered in 23K yellow gold, featuring a silver outer dial with black Roman numeral markers and a center skeleton cut-out. The protective Krysterna crystal dial window houses the mechanical movement, which requires manual winding of the crown 25-30 times or until resistance is felt every 24-36 hours to maintain operation.

Watch enthusiasts are drawn to manual mechanical watches due to the unobstructed view of the movement, as opposed to automatic watches with a rotor. This pocket watch has a dual exhibition case, allowing the wearer a full view of the magnificent polished mechanical machine from all angles.

To power the watch, the crown must be manually wound, which tightens the mainspring and stores energy to keep the movement running smoothly. The estimated power reserve for this movement is 30 hours, so the watch should be hand-wound daily to maintain accuracy.

This pocket watch can also double as a desk clock, with an integrated hinge that allows it to stand upright on a flat surface. The round knob, or "couronne" in French, protruding from the top or side of the case is used to wind the mainspring and set the hands to the proper time. This type of crown was considered the most desirable in the early days of watchmaking, for its beauty and ease of use. The enclosures within the crown guard help prevent malfunctions and inaccuracies, and the spherical shape with vertical grooves resembles an onion, inspiring the "onion crown" moniker.

The watch features a 12-inch stainless steel chain with a belt clip, allowing for versatile wear. The item's dimensions are 3 inches in width, and the material is brass.
