Bigelow, Kennard & Co. Boston Antique Pocket Watch – 1911 – Gold Filled – Engraved Back

A charming early 20th century antique pocket watch retailed by Bigelow, Kennard & Co. of Boston, dating to approximately 1911. This elegant piece features a classic white enamel dial with stylized black Arabic numerals, blued hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock.

The smooth gold filled case has a refined minimalist appearance accented by an engraved monogram on the reverse, giving the watch wonderful period character. Its slimmer profile and smaller proportions make it especially wearable and versatile compared to many larger pocket watches of the era.

Pieces bearing their name reflect the refined craftsmanship and understated elegance popular during the Edwardian period.

The ornate bow and crown, delicate typography, and clean open-face design are all characteristic of watches produced in the years just before World War I.
