Pocket Watch Necklace Pendant

This item is a small, round pocket watch designed to be worn as a pendant, likely on a necklace, given its scale and the visible chain attachment. The watch features a classic hunting case style, with a hinged cover that protects the watch face. The case appears to be made of a silver-toned metal, possibly sterling silver, plated metal, or a silver alloy, and exhibits a polished or brushed finish. The lid, which is open in the image, shows a row of small, uniform indentations or engravings along its inner rim, adding a decorative element. The watch face is concentric, with an outer ring featuring prominent Roman numerals (I through XII) in a darker shade against a lighter, possibly cream or off-white background. The center of the watch face has a textured or engraved pattern, with the manufacturer's name 'ROYALITE' visible at the 12 o'clock position. The hour and minute hands are dark, slender, and classically styled. A winding stem and crown are visible at the 3 o'clock position, adorned with what appears to be a decorative, possibly floral or scrolled, finial or bail for attaching a chain. The overall aesthetic suggests a vintage or antique-inspired design, evoking a sense of classic elegance. There are no obvious signs of significant wear or damage visible from this perspective; the metal appears generally clean, and the watch face is clear. The craftsmanship, particularly the detailed crown and the decorative lid, indicates a reasonable quality for a fashion accessory. The small size suggests it is more a decorative piece than a primary time-keeping device for daily use, fitting the description of a women's small clock necklace.
