A rare early 20th century Russian-market wristwatch created as a collaboration between H. Moser & Cie and Alexander Fuld, the master silversmith to the Russian Imperial Court. This impressive piece combines a Swiss precision timepiece with an exceptionally made silver case and a fully stamped bimetallic articulated bracelet, giving it strong historical and collectible appeal.
The watch is understood to have been produced to commemorate the 1913 Romanov Tercentenary Jubilee, a major celebration marking 300 years of the Romanov dynasty. The dial is signed H. Moser & Cie and features Arabic numerals with a red 12 and subsidiary seconds at 6 o’clock, a configuration typical of period wristwatches. The hinged case and bracelet construction reflect the transitional era when wristwatches were evolving from pocket-watch forms, making this a particularly characterful example with genuine period presence.
Offered in original condition, this is a standout piece of Russian-imperial associated horology, pairing elite Swiss watchmaking with notable Russian court silversmithing.
