2.1276 LE CHEMINANT ‘GOLF’ POCKET WATCH (NEW-OLD-STOCK), SWISS 1980s

A very unusual New-Old-Stock Swiss pocket watch from the 1980s, made in the classic full-hunter format with a spring-hinged front cover and richly decorated engravings. This one is pure character: two detailed golf scenes on the outer covers, an ornate bow and crown, and a clean, traditional white dial with Roman numerals and a small seconds register. Excellent choice for presentation.

Condition: New-Old-Stock / like new. Crisp dial printing, clean hands, and very fresh overall presentation. The case engraving is sharp and expressive.

About Le Cheminant

Le Cheminant is one of those “quiet” Swiss names you meet in the late 20th century: not a mass luxury brand, but a label that built watches the traditional Swiss way, often using proven ebauche movements and focusing on classic presentation – top quality dials, solid cases, and dependable mechanics. In the 1980s especially, many such Swiss houses created small-batch themed pieces like this – highly decorative pocket watches made to be gifted, collected, and kept “as new.”
