Automatic Engraved Pocket Watch with Double Covers
An automatic engraved pocket watch does more than measure time — it crystallizes it. The moment your fingers brush the crown and the two covers part, a delicate dial emerges, framed by a case whose relief engraving speaks silently of what words dare not always say. The automatic movement pulses beneath the metal like a second heartbeat, indifferent to oblivion, faithful to the generations. Mineral crystal protects the hours without weighing them down, while fine hands trace their path across a dial where each index seems placed with precision. It is a timepiece designed to carry a memory — a name, a date, a face you refuse to let fade away.
The Art of Distinction
- Carrying this piece is keeping a fragment of personal history close to your heart — a discreet and constant presence that belongs only to you.
- Designed to traverse decades, it naturally becomes an heirloom, carrying the soft weight of accumulated memories.
- The automatic mechanism winds with every movement of your body: no additional gesture, no battery to monitor, only life itself sustaining the watch.
- The relief engraving on both covers grants this piece a visual and tactile singularity that no digital dial could ever replicate.

How to Wear the Automatic Engraved Pocket Watch
The double hunter pocket watch finds its natural place in the left pocket of a three-piece waistcoat, the chain gliding in a discreet arc across the fabric. For a ceremony — a wedding, degree ceremony, family occasion — it accompanies a frock coat or dark suit with a sobriety few accessories can match. Enthusiasts of retro or steampunk aesthetics readily pair it with a velvet jacket, a high collar, and antique buttons, creating a coherent ensemble where every detail speaks of the same era. To explore other expressions of mechanical style, the blue mechanical clapet pocket watch offers a different, equally bold color palette.
A Gift of Character
Offering an engraved homage pocket watch with relief engraving is choosing a gift that time does not devalue. For Valentine's Day, a milestone birthday, or retirement, this double-cover piece expresses what a bouquet cannot. It is equally suited to occasions where you wish to honor a legacy — a son entering the working world, a father you wish to thank. Those who prefer a more understated silhouette will find in the steel half-hunter pocket watch an elegant and durable alternative.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the automatic mechanism of this pocket watch work?
The automatic movement is powered by a rotor that oscillates with the natural movements of the wearer. As long as the watch is worn regularly, it winds itself. In the event of prolonged non-wear, a simple manual wind via the crown is sufficient to restart the movement.
How do I care for the relief engraving on the covers?
A soft, dry cloth is sufficient for routine maintenance of the engraved covers. Avoid chemical products and prolonged moisture. Gentle cleaning with a soft brush preserves the relief details without altering the metal or surface finish.
Is this double-cover pocket watch suitable for long-term storage?
The double case back effectively protects the movement and dial from shocks and dust, favoring preservation over the long term. Stored in its case away from direct light and significant humidity variations, the piece will be preserved across generations.
The art of the timepiece
At UNIVERS GOUSSET, the pocket watch predates the wristwatch by more than a century.

Univers Gousset selects pieces that perpetuate this craftsmanship, without betraying its spirit.
For collectors and those discovering antique horology alike, our watches share a single standard: to endure over time. Through their mechanics, their materials, and what they represent worn every day.
