The limited edition Rpaige Wrocket watch is a play on words. The watch uses an antique\/vintage \u201c12 size\u201d (39.78mm) American pocket watch movement made by either Elgin of Illinois, or Waltham of\u00a0Massachusetts.

The Wrocket model comes from the joining of two technologies\u2026.the wristwatch and pocket watch\u2026The wrist-pocket = the Wrocket watch. The 12 size pocket watch movements measures 39.78 mm, a perfect size for a modern oversize wristwatch.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The 12 size movements were produced mainly between 1897 and around 1929, after these dates, the wristwatch\u00a0gained market acceptance and popularity, and the movements were then manufactured much smaller to fit into wristwatch cases. Although the movements in these limited edition watches were produced between 1899 and 1929, it does not mean that they have \u201cold technology\u201d.

The basic design of the mechanical wristwatch has not changed since the late 1800\u2019s. In fact, the materials and workmanship used on these movements is far superior than most brand name watches.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
