Nice quality, Swiss made sterling silver pocket watch which transforms into a travel clock. Dating from 1922.
Solid sterling silver cushion shaped case which opens transforming the pocket watch into a travel clock. The cover is opened by depressing the button located between the bow. Once released, the case opens and a sprung-loaded plate containing the watch flips out and locates into the rim of the cover. This allows the cover to be used as a base, enabling it to be set down on a flat surface, such as bedside table, or desk.

(Huguenin Frères - high quality Swiss case maker's), a Glasgow sterling silver import hallmark corresponding to the year 1922 and with the importer's mark, "JW" (J Weir Ltd - Jewellers & Silversmiths, Buchanan Street, Glasgow, Scotland).
