**First Time At Auction**
North America, United States, St. Louis, Missouri, ca. 1904 CE; Central Europe, Geneva, Switzerland ca. late 19th to early 20th century CE; Mexico, ca. late 19th century CE. A fantastic pair of antique silver pocket watches with silver and nickel-silver fobs, and a brass medallion. The smaller watch opens to reveal an engraved "ENCHAPPEMENT ANCRE 15 RUBIS GENEVE." Attached is a fob comprised of small openwork silver plates of eagles with "REPUBLICA MEXICANA." The larger watch is manufactured by the Elgin National Watch Company and features a 91% silver watch with a nickel-silver chain with plates commemorating the centennial of the 1803 Louisiana Purchase and the 1904 St. Louis Exposition. The brass medallion features a shrouded figure of the Virgin Mary and the inscription "N.S D. Guadalupe De Mexico." The verso appears to feature another Christian robed figure but it hard to discern. A fabulous collection of antique jewelry! Size (Elgin watch & fob): 8.5" L x 2" Diameter (21.6 cm x 5.1 cm); quality of silver: 83% to 94.5%; total weight of watches & silver fob: 260 grams
