Women's Tree of Life Pocket Watch Necklace: Time Engraved in Wood
There exist timepieces that transcend mere hour-telling. The women's tree of life pocket watch necklace in bronze from our collection belongs to that rare family — objects worn as fragments of memory. Its hinged case, dressed in a coppery patina with ancient gleams, is adorned with the tree of life in relief, this millennial motif evoking rootedness, growth, and the continuity of life itself. Upon touching the crown, the clasp inclines with gentleness, revealing an immaculate white dial with precise Arabic numerals. The whole is animated by a silent and rigorous quartz movement, whose steady rhythm marks the hours without ever faltering. A piece that dialogues as much with vintage aesthetics as with botanical symbolism — for those who choose their accessories with intention.
The Art of Distinction
- Bearing a symbol laden with meaning — the tree of life suspended at the chest like a horological talisman, discreet and profound in equal measure.
- A piece to transmit: its vintage character and timeless symbolism make it a collectible object capable of traversing multiple generations.
- The versatility of its generous 80 cm chain allows adjustment according to mood — worn as a sautoir, as a pendant, or draped according to the desires of the moment.
- The pressure-release opening mechanism via the crown confers upon this necklace-watch a singular ritual: each consultation of the hour becomes a gesture.

How to Wear the Vintage Tree Necklace Watch
The generous length of the chain opens a field of stylistic possibilities. As a sautoir over a Peter Pan collar blouse or dark velvet dress, it evokes the elegance of early-century drawing rooms. Slipped into the pocket of a speckled waistcoat or feminine three-piece suit, it joins the world of collectors passionate about vintage horology. For an affirmed steampunk aesthetic, it pairs naturally with other pieces in coppery tones — much like the timepieces of steampunk character that compose this universe. Worn close to the neck, it adopts a minimalist sobriety that suits the most refined everyday attire.
A Gift of Character
Certain gifts require no discourse to signify what they bear. This tree of life necklace-watch suits a landmark birthday, a symbolic transmission between women of the same lineage, or an occasion that deserves an object laden with meaning rather than ephemeral. For those seeking an alternative to conventional jewelry, this timepiece pairs readily with a mechanical hinged pocket watch to compose a distinctive set. A considered choice, never trivial.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the case cover opening mechanism work?
The cover opens by gently pressing the crown located at the top of the case. This pressure releases the clasp that pivots, revealing the dial. This system, typical of hunter cases, requires no tool and operates with a single hand.
What battery should be used and how is it replaced?
The quartz movement operates with a standard button cell battery of SR626SW type or equivalent, available at jewelry stores or major retailers. Replacement is performed by removing the case back with a fine tool. In case of doubt, any watchmaker can perform this operation in minutes.
Can this watch be preserved and transmitted over the long term?
The bronze alloy case naturally develops a patina over time, which strengthens its vintage character. For prolonged preservation, it is advisable to store it away from humidity and replace the battery at the first signs of slowing, to preserve the mechanism.
The Art of Timekeeping
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.
