REMARKS: Rare Aureole Swiss Platium UltraThin Pocket Watch with Top Grade Double Geneva Seal Hallmark Movement.  Aureole on the dial is a more obscure name with high possibility that the ebauche was made by Huguenin of Switzerland and also which it has the same layout as Gruen Precision 19 jewels grade movements often seen used in Dietrich Gruen models.  The top quality is evident with the finesse in finishing and it comes with 2 Geneva Seals Hallmarks.  Profile of the watch is ultra thin with approximately 4.5mm in thickness without counting the height of the crystal.  This watch was made in the 1910-1920s.

CONDITION REPORT: Condition-wise the watch winds and runs well.  However, we cannot guarantee timekeeping accuracy or longevity for a watch made over 100 years ago.  Antique watches should be serviced by certified watchmaker before extensive use which is at the sole discretion of the buyer.  Cosmetically the dial has some edge oxidation which makes the outer rim of the dial appear smoky in color.  The platinum case is solid and it does not have dings or dents.  Diameter without pendant is 46mm, total weight is 54.6g.
