Antique and vintage clocks
Antique and vintage pendulum clocks, vintage wrist and pocket watches for sale
Each antique watch is a piece of history, and which story could be more interesting than that of an instrument that measures the time? It is the result of mankind’s desire to capture the most elusive dimension of their life. Time is still difficult to comprehend and explain, but at least we managed to enclose it in these little but precise tools. The story of watches is as old as mankind’s attempt to measure it. First by observing the movements of the sun and creating sundials, then by installing mechanical clocks on bell towers and monastery, and nowadays by using modern chronographs and satellite timekeeping.
The antique watch is history to be worn at Passione Antiqua
