Vintage Swiss Condor Pendant Watch with Tassel & Chain

A beautifully preserved vintage Swiss pendant watch by Condor, featuring a 17-jewel mechanical movement concealed within an elegant engine-turned gold-tone case.

Designed to be worn as jewellery, the cylindrical pendant opens to reveal a delicate watch dial with Roman numerals, while a decorative tassel and accompanying gold-tone chain complete the piece. Objects such as this were created during a time when everyday rituals were approached with beauty and intention, transforming the practical act of keeping time into something altogether more decorative.

What makes this example particularly special is its exceptional condition. The engraved patterning remains crisp, the tassel beautifully preserved, and the watch presents wonderfully both closed as a pendant and open as a timepiece.

A charming collector’s piece that sits somewhere between jewellery, vanity object and watch — equally at home worn on a long chain or displayed amongst perfume bottles, mirrors and treasured dressing table objects.

Condition: excellent vintage condition with minimal signs of wear.

Dimensions: 7.5 cm from top to end of tassel, and 9 cm when the watch is extended.

Chain included.
