Are Antique Pocket Watches in Demand?
The term “antique pocket watch” is used to refer to vintage pocket watches of high quality. Collectors and those who buy and sell antique pocket watches in shops around the world are always looking for new items to offer their discerning clientele.
While fine contemporary timepieces are always in demand, the market is often overflowing with desirable items.
