Butcher Watch Pocket Klimax
The Butcher Watch Pocket Klimax is an early 20th-century British folding pocket camera, sold in the United Kingdom by W. Butcher & Sons. It was marketed as a compact strut-folding plate camera for amateur photographers.
With only a single tracked UK auction hammer result, the Watch Pocket Klimax sells for around £94, based on a 2022 saleroom sale. As of today in 2026 the data is too thin to publish a meaningful range, and what a Watch Pocket Klimax is worth at auction will depend heavily on completeness, shutter function and cosmetic condition.
