A highly rare 1920s 18K yellow gold pocket watch by the European Watch Clock & Company (EWC), featuring an exquisite multi-pattern guilloché dial.
It is powered by an EWC movement with 19 jewels, adjusted to eight positions, and finished to an exceptionally high standard with beautifully executed detailing. The dial features a matte white base adorned with several distinct guilloché patterns. Its elaborate design incorporates Roman numeral hour markers for the 12-hour scale around the outer perimeter and Arabic numerals for the 24-hour scale on the inner track. The distinctive spade-shaped hands are designed to indicate both 12-hour and 24-hour time, making this an exceptionally unique and intricately crafted timepiece.
Its originality of design and extraordinary attention to detail share much in common with Cartier, while retaining the distinctive aesthetic and character unique to EWC. An exceptionally rare and remarkable piece that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of early 20th-century fine watchmaking.
