The Beauty and the Beast Pocket Watch — Rose Under Glass in Bronze
The Beauty and the Beast pocket watch tells far more than the hour — it suspends a moment of fairy tale within the palm of your hand. Its generously crafted patinated bronze case houses a flowered dial where the face of Beauty emerges among the roses, evoking the enchanted bell and beast that protects the magical flower in the original tale. The winding crown, sober and precise, withdraws behind the overall aesthetic without ever betraying it. Mineral glass preserves the dial from the wear of daily life, while the matching chain transforms this pendant pocket watch into a veritable adornment. Worn upon the bodice or slipped into a pocket, it belongs to those timepieces that transcend fashion without ever succumbing to it.
The Art of Distinction
- To wear a beautiful rose pocket watch is to choose narrative over mere decoration — each glance at it invites a question, a conversation, a memory.
- A collector's piece with affirmed literary iconography, it inscribes itself within a tradition of horological pendants transmitted from generation to generation, charged with meaning as much as with mechanics.
- The quartz movement guarantees silent precision and minimal maintenance: the magic remains intact without requiring daily winding.
- The combination of bronze, the rose-under-glass Beauty and Beast motif, and the pendant format distinguishes this piece from ordinary fashion watches — here, horology and imagination occupy precisely the same space.

How to Wear the Beauty Beast Pocket Watch?
As a pendant pocket watch, this piece coordinates naturally with ivory lace bodices or Victorian-collared dresses, where the bronze warms cream and burgundy tones. It also finds its place in a romantic everyday ensemble: flowing buttoned blouse, long skirt, and laced ankle boots. For admirers of more assertive retro style, it dialogues with creations with epic themes to compose a dual-chain look, mingling fantastic tales with fin-de-siècle aesthetics. In all cases, the provided chain suffices — no embellishment necessary.
A Gift of Character
A pocket watch pendant with iconography as precise as this one is destined for those who know how to receive a piece laden with history. For a birthday, a graduation, or Valentine's Day, it expresses attachment without need for words. Collectors sensitive to the world of fairy tales will see in it a natural complement to bronze timepieces with openwork detailing already in their possession. A carefully crafted case box bestows upon it the solemnity it deserves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of movement powers this watch and what are its practical implications?
The movement is quartz, powered by battery. It requires neither manual winding nor regular caliber servicing. Precision remains constant during ordinary use. Battery replacement can be performed by any watchmaker or jeweler equipped with standard tools.
How do I maintain the bronze case and preserve the dial's appearance?
Bronze patinates naturally through contact with air and skin, which enhances its vintage character. A soft wipe with a dry cloth after wear suffices. Mineral glass cleans with microfiber fabric. Avoid immersion in water and chemical products.
Is this watch suitable for long-term storage or for handing down through generations?
Yes, provided the battery is removed in cases of prolonged storage to prevent any internal oxidation. Kept away from humidity and direct light, in its original case or a padded box, it will remain in excellent condition for several decades without notable deterioration of the case or dial.
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.
