Mother-of-pearl flower pocket watch: iridescent brilliance captured in time
There are timepieces that need not demand attention — they command presence through their very being. The mother-of-pearl flower pocket watch unites the carefully crafted relief of an ornate cover with the soft iridescence of nacre, capturing light with a discretion that belongs only to pieces crafted with meticulous care. The silver-toned case, of hunter type, conceals beneath its cover a legible dial, adorned with Arabic numerals traced with precision. The crown releases the opening mechanism with a single press, revealing the hour in a gesture that retains something ceremonial. Worn as a pendant, suspended from its chain, it comes to rest against the chest like an elegant secret — neither quite jewel nor ordinary watch, but something between the two, at the boundary of time and ornament.
The art of distinction
- To wear this timepiece is to affirm a relationship with time that escapes urgency — a way of slowing others' perception of oneself.
- A collectible piece to be passed down, it carries within it the tradition of the pocket watch without mimicking its codes: it speaks equally to those who receive and those who give.
- The hunter mechanism protects the dial from the shocks of daily life, extending the piece's longevity without particular constraint for its wearer.
- The floral motif in iridescent mother-of-pearl distinguishes this model from any smooth case: light plays differently at each angle, rendering each wearing subtly unique.

How to wear the silver flower pocket watch?
The hunter-type pocket watch naturally finds its place slipped into the pocket of a three-piece waistcoat, its chain forming an elegant arc between the buttons and the lapel. It pairs with equal ease to a structured feminine ensemble — dark tailored jacket, collared shirt — where the silver tone of the case responds to the cool tones of the fabric. For a freer register, inspired by Victorian or retro-bohemian style, it is worn directly as a long pendant over a turtleneck. Those wishing to expand their collection may also wish to consider our mechanical pocket watch with manual winding, whose visible movement perpetuates the watchmaking spirit of this piece.
A gift of character
A milestone birthday, Mother's Day, coming of age, or a simple thoughtful gesture — the silver flower pocket watch lends itself to those moments when one seeks an object that endures beyond the occasion. It appeals equally to one who collects retro pieces and to one who wears jewellery with sobriety. For someone drawn to dual-form designs and multi-cover timepieces, our women's pocket watch with dual covers constitutes a complementary choice to consider.
Frequently asked questions
What type of movement powers this model, and does it require regular winding?
This model is powered by a quartz movement driven by a battery. It requires no manual winding. A simple battery replacement, routine maintenance, is all that is needed to maintain consistent timekeeping over a long period.
How should I care for the silver case and the mother-of-pearl decoration on the cover?
A soft, dry cloth is sufficient to clean the silver hunter-type pocket watch case after wear. Mother-of-pearl, a natural material sensitive to chemicals, must be kept away from perfumes and detergents. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
Does this piece keep well over time to be passed down?
Stored in a closed case, protected from moisture and significant temperature fluctuations, a quartz pocket watch ages without notable mechanical depreciation. The hunter case protects the dial. Removing the battery during prolonged storage prevents any risk of internal corrosion.
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.
