Note du spécialiste

This collectible watch is made from a US 20 dollar coin from 1891. Coin watches were offered by many of the great watch makers including Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Cartier and Rolex such as the present watch. Coin watches are interesting because they are actually made from two coins to conceal a watch inside.
