This listing is for an antique “The King” pocket watch housed in a gold-filled case by Victor Watch Case Co., marked No. 751159. This elegant early timepiece features a white enamel dial with Roman numerals, a sub-seconds dial at 6 o’clock, and a hinged hunter-style front cover that opens smoothly. The dial is signed “The King.”
Inside, the manual wind mechanical movement shows classic craftsmanship — blued screws, visible gears, and a clean plate design under the inner cover. The case and movement are well preserved for their age.
A handsome example of early 20th-century watchmaking, perfect for collectors, restorers, or anyone who appreciates antique horology.
Notes:
A beautiful and collectible antique pocket watch showing fine design and quality materials. Ideal for display, restoration, or as part of a vintage timepiece collection.
Comparable antique “The King” pocket watches in gold-filled Victor cases typically sell in the $175–$325 range, depending on condition and functionality.
Given its preserved dial, clean movement, and original case, this example is valued around $250
