Not just a timing tool: pocket watch, a symbol of inheritance and taste

Although electronic devices such as mobile phones can easily check the time nowadays, pocket watches still attract many enthusiasts with their accurate timekeeping and exquisite craftsmanship.

Some antique pocket watches and limited edition pocket watches have high collection value and are precious items for inheriting family history and culture.

On June 4, 1940

Winston Churchill attended a meeting of the House of Commons as Prime Minister. His emotions were complex but exceptionally firm, as he watched the passage of time on his pocket watch. At this moment that determined the fate of the country, all the members of parliament listened with breath to his famous speech: 'We will fight to the end.

The pocket watch he wore for life accompanied him to witness many moments that overturned the fate of Britain. Not only during speeches, but also in many iconic photos during wartime, Churchill's waist bracelet can be seen. Churchill was a loyal fan of Breguet watches, and throughout his life, he frequently visited Breguet, either to purchase watches or for regular maintenance.
From the Breguet sales ledger, it can be seen that this is an excellent timepiece with a three question clock function and a flying second hand.
The pocket watch equipped with a flying second hand can immediately reset the timing hand to zero and start the next timer as long as the button is pressed, which seems to make people feel the cruelty of racing against time in the war at that time.
In the following years, he often sent this pocket watch to Breguet for maintenance, which proves the importance of this pocket watch to Churchill.

Choosing a pocket watch is not only about choosing a timing tool, but also about choosing a lifestyle attitude and pursuit of taste
