Automatic silver hunter pocket watch — mechanical elegance with cover
There are objects that stop time before you even read it. The automatic silver hunter pocket watch is one of them. Slipped into a waistcoat pocket, held by its chain, it waits — silent, alive. A light pressure on the crown is all it takes: the cover pivots, revealing a skeleton dial where the gears pursue their perpetual dance, without battery, without intervention. The silver case, adorned with an engraved crest on the front, combines the rigor of classical architecture with the transparency of an openwork caseback that allows glimpses of the oscillating balance wheel. Beneath the mineral glass, the gears organize themselves with the meticulous precision of an automatic movement sustained by the wearer's motion alone. A timepiece that is never contemplated without emotion.
The art of distinction
- To carry this timepiece is to introduce into one's daily life a deliberate gesture — that of consulting the time with the solemnity it deserves.
- A collector's piece with heritage aspirations, it is transmitted as a horological legacy rather than worn out as a mere accessory.
- Automatic winding frees one from all constraint: the movement sustains itself as long as the watch accompanies its wearer.
- The engraved crest on the cover confers upon each specimen its own identity, between aristocratic hallmark and discreet singularity.

How to wear a silver automatic pocket watch?
The three-piece suit remains the natural setting for a silver automatic flip pocket watch: chain passed through the waistcoat buttonhole, case housed in the adjacent pocket. For formal attire — a wedding, a formal presentation — it advantageously replaces any other costume ornament, establishing a restrained and meaningful elegance. The steampunk universe offers it a second stage of expression: paired with a jabotted shirt, leather braces, and a fitted jacket, it imposes itself as the masterpice. Those who appreciate unexpected associations may also explore our marble watches, whose minerality contrasts with the purity of the silver metal.
A gift of character
A milestone birthday, a diploma presentation, a retirement — these moments call for an object worthy of them. The silver hunter pocket watch with crest lends itself to these occasions with rare aptness: it is not a gift of convenience, but a piece one keeps. For those seeking an alternative to the classical register, the pyrite skeleton pocket watch offers singular mineralogy. Two approaches, one same horological demand.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the automatic mechanism of this pocket watch function?
The automatic movement is powered by a rotor that oscillates under the effect of the wearer's natural movements. This kinetic energy winds the mainspring without manual intervention. The watch remains in motion as long as it is regularly worn or kept on a mechanical winder.
Does this timepiece require particular maintenance to keep it in good condition?
An automatic mechanical movement ideally benefits from a horological service every five to eight years. Between these intervals, one should avoid shocks, prolonged humidity, and intense magnetic fields. The hunter cover naturally protects the dial and mineral glass from superficial scratches.
Can this watch be given as a gift and preserved long-term?
Yes. A mechanical movement without battery or electronic components has a potentially unlimited lifespan, provided periodic maintenance is performed. In case of prolonged storage without wearing, it is recommended to manually wind the crown every two to three weeks to maintain spring tension.
The Art of Timekeeping
At UNIVERS GOUSSET, the pocket watch predates the wristwatch by more than a century. It carried the time in an era when every object was built to last — visible mechanisms, engraved cases, hand-forged chains. 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.
Every watch has its character. Find yours.
Skeleton movement or hunter case, gold or silver, manual-wind or automatic — our collections cover the full spectrum of pocket watchmaking. Each piece is selected for its craftsmanship and character, not its trend.
What a pocket watch changes.
A bare wrist, a glinting chain — the difference comes down to one object.
