Welcome to Cogs and Pieces, our website dedicated to the sale of fine antique pocket watches and high quality vintage pocket watches.  
 

                                                      

We are a UK based business, specialising in the sale of English and Continental antique pocket watches from the late 17th century through to good quality vintage pocket watches from the early 20th century. 

 

We try to have some interesting and unusual examples to offer, including those with decorative cases, calendars, repeating movements, painted dials and other unusual dials. 

 

We usually have something from the important makers and always have a good selection of English pocket watches with verge, cylinder, repeater and fusee movements as well as other items of horological interest.

 

All of the pocket watches listed have been carefully checked and serviced where necessary.  Unless stated otherwise, they are running well, though with no guarantee of accurate timekeeping.

 

We have included comprehensive images of each pocket watch, with a short description but please contact us for more details if required. We are constantly buying antique pocket watches to add to these lists, so if you cannot find what you are looking for, please let us have some details and we'll contact you when something suitable becomes available.

Over the last few years we have sold hundreds of rare and interesting antique watches.  We regularly get asked for information from horological researchers so have decided to add an archive page with summary information and links to our photographs of these wonderful watches.  Please use the "Archive" link above to access this information.

If you have bought a watch from us and prefer not to have this archive information available online, then please contact us and we will remove it.

    

     

     

We are continually buying good quality watches to add to our stock, so please check this site for regular updates.  If you have any interesting or early pocket watches to sell, then please contact us, whether you have individual watches or collections.
