    Description

    USA assembled, USA sold.
    The watch movements are vintage Soviet era Russian watch movements. I imported them myself. The jewelry box is beautiful blue metal and they are imported from China. One might consider a wood box but the I thought the blue metal was perfect considering the steam punk theme. I hope you agree. The blue jewelry box is itself will arrive in a standard white cardboard jewelry box, as pictured, just as you would get from any quality jewelry store.
    Of course the penny is not part of the auction, it is just there as a reference to the size.
    I will also include a folded "certificate" in the outer box so the recipient of these interesting cuff links will know that they should care for these as any silver item and will know the origin of the watch movement.
    I made these myself. The cuff link stem and back plate is silver plated, the watch movement is not plated.
    After seeing many poor quality items, shoddy workmanship of these online I decided to see if I could make something worth giving for Christmas, a wedding or a graduation gift. I used more expensive industrial grade adhesives rather than cheap glue or "cold solder". The watch movements will not fall off the back plate as they often do with cheaply made cufflinks. I used silver plated shafts rather than something chrome plated or painted. I decided to use real jewelry boxes rather than a cloth pouch, or worse yet, plastic jewelry bags.
    I am sure you will love these, but if you don't, you can return them in their original condition within 10 days of their arrival.
