We get a lot of questions about how to open pocket watches so we thought we'd share a quick blog for you today. At Vortic Watch Company, one of the most common things we do is convert family heirlooms and other antique American pocket watches into our custom wristwatches.

The first thing we need to know before converting a pocket watch is where it came from and what specs it has. The only way to do this is by looking at the actual mechanism hidden behind the back cover of most pocket watches.

If you're like most people, you probably haven't spent a lot of time around these antique pieces, and therefore probably wouldn't know where to start when it comes to opening one up.
