Its certainly neat but unfortunately, its value will be in the 14K gold case. Find another one of these movements and you can make some cool cuff links out of them.

Yep.

I don't care about value. Just love Wilsdorf history.

I wasnt sure what you were asking in your post, so I went to value since thats usually the question with these watches.

I like it. The casework and the dial design give it kind of a Roman style.

Pretty little watch it’s just too small for modern woman to wear hard to say but the value is in the gold as has been said

It is for me.

I won't be melting my 1915 pendant watch for the $2 of silver in the case.



But for both of these I love that local cases were made to avoid precious metal duties.
