*Our Pocket Watch Statement:

Please read and understand this statement before buying one of our pocket watches. We want to make this clear. First, we do not accept returns. Second, we know nothing about the pocket watches we offer for sale except the basic information listing. All are vintage or antique pocket watches, which means that they have probably been handled by many people over the course of time. Buying a vintage or antique pocket watch in this price range does carry risk because we have absolutely no idea if any pocket watch. If it does not run, we say so. If it runs, we say so. If it has some issue, but does run, we say so. We are honest people, but you have to understand that buying a vintage or antique pocket watch in our price range does not mean that they cannot break and need repair. The parts and labor can be very expensive if you cannot do it yourself or have a friend who does.
