Mount Royal B42 m – Pocket Watch

Bought as a wedding gift for my husband, he absolutely loves it. Love how both the front and the back open and that you can see the workings through the front even when these are closed. I had hoped to get it engraved for him but was advised that due to the back cover not opening to 90 degrees a message inside here would not be possible. There is however a small blank circle in the middle on the back which now has his initials in =) Very smart appearance.

My husband loved this it was just what he wanted, it is very well made . delivered very quickly.

This is a lovely piece of work - especially the slightly plainer, clearer inner face. The spring action on the lid is nice and smooth - it took a little while to get used to how you open and close the back, but I can see why it's designed the way it is. The watch will run for about 30 hours on a full wind, so winding once a day is easily sufficient to keep it running. It keeps great time too - mine gains a little, but only a few minutes a week, which is more accurate than my old self-winding wristwatch! If you look closely, it's obvious that this isn't a posh, expensive watch, but if, like me, you're not sure if a pocket watch is for you, it's an ideal place to start. I really don't think you could get any better in this price range.

Very impressed
