gift description:

While pocket watches were invented in 16th century England, it was not until the late 17th century that they became more common and accurate. The watches were incredibly big and were generally worn around the neck because of their girth. It is rumored that the famous painting of Henry VIII was not a medallion around his neck, but a pocket watch. A modern take on the original, this pocket watch’s inside face watch shows the skeleton, so you can watch its movements. The watch’s classic design features brushed chrome plating, making it a great keepsake to pass on to future generations.

Memorable gift. September 25, 2012
"We gave this to our son on his wedding day, with a special inscription on the back. He loved it, and it looked great worn with his three piece suit at the wedding and in the pictures. It's a very nice gift for a reasonable price."

Great Pocket Watch September 18, 2012
"The pocket watch looked very nice. We did have to send it back due to it would not stay shut. Something was wrong with the latch. I was able to send it back no problem and they sent me a new one which I will get this week. My boyfriend loved it and thought it was perfect. I got it gift wrapped and that made it even better."

Pocket Watch August 25, 2012
"The engraving was very nice and the watch itself is beautifully made. Since it's a gift it has not been used yet so I can not speak to it's timeliness."

Broke within hours June 21, 2012
"My kids got this for Father's Day and my husband loved it and the inscription. He carried it with him that afternoon as we made the rounds to our father's homes. After we had returned home, it was suddenly open in his pocket (there was nothing else in his pocket). The clasp had broken and would no longer close. I'm still waiting on a replacement - it seems to take longer than an original order before a holiday (go figure). The customer service when I called was great, but hoping the replacement lasts longer than an afternoon!"

Beautiful presentation June 07, 2012
"A gorgeous gift to bestow on my high school graduate. Engraved with my words on back and his initials on front. A lot of bang for your buck. Beautifully packaged too. This watch has an exciting aura about it because the workings are visible . Very current and smartly styled. I was proud to give it to him. Got lots of ooohs and aaaahs."

Time after Time May 10, 2012
"OMG!!! This is the best gift that I have ever given to anyone. I bought this as a groom's gift. I gave it to my new husband. I left it on our bed for him to open the night before our wedding. HE LOVES IT!!! He called me immediately to tell me how beautiful it is. I didn't look at it prior to giving it to him because I purchase gifts from Red Envelope all of the time and I haven't been let down. I trust their product. Thank you red envelope for helping us to create a family tradition, we are going to pass the watch down to our son or daughter. Once we have children, lol. How Wonderful?!"

Disappointed March 22, 2012
"The gift was wrapped beautifully, but there was information on the outside the told him what was in the box so it took away some of the surprise. The part that clips to the chain popped off but he was able to fix it, the other problem is that even though he winds it, as recommended, it loses time as the day progresses. I am disappointed to think that not only was my surprise slightly spoiled, he had not even had it 24 hours when the chain popped off and right around 24 hours when he noticed that it was losing time."

Very nice gift I purchased the pocket watch for my husband in celebration of our anniversary. The quality is very nice. It arrived very quickly--even with the personal engraving I had ordered. This is a great gift for a husband, Dad, etc. I recommend it highly--go for the gift box/wrap--Red Envelope does a terrific job with the overall presentation.
