Art Deco Button Hole Watch no marketing My first thought on seeing

My first thought on seeing the subject was a link with Artemis (via Agamemnon/Actaeon)

This practice was employed right through until the first half of the 20th Century

and it's long enough to wear as a short necklace

Elegant design

Art Deco Button Hole Watch no marketing My first thought on seeingDATE: Art Deco, c. 1920 A cool novelty "button hole" lapel watch, circa 1920. The miniature watch face designed to be slipped through a lapel button hole (or regular button hole, I guess), while the watch mechanism itself is housed in a larger case that sits behind. Somewhat remarkable it's in full working order, and appears to keep good time the miniature watch section complete with a faux crown and bail. MEASUREMENTS Watch face: 1. 9 x 1. 4cm WEIGHT
