hey guy i was just wondering if this is an official zelda pocket watch. I know there are all kinds of fan made ones out there but i've never really seen this one.

It has the registered trademark symbol at the end of Zelda and in the top corner it says copyright 1998 nintendo 

was wondering if anyone could shed some light on this for me?

I'd say thats the real deal. I did a search and came up with this

Its similar enough to yours that I doubt it is a fan made item. Very cool!!

I agree that it looks official, very nice!

That is a very nice watch, color me impressed!

I'll have to dig mine out to confirm, but I'm about 99% sure that that's the same as the one I bought from a Nintendo Power Super Power Supplies Catalog a long time ago, which would make it an official watch.

I'll confirm the post above. I've for years preferred pocket watches as I have an odd ability of resurfacing the face of a wrist watch within weeks of a purchase (no idea how as I don't do high impact stuff.) I bought that watch from the Nintendo catalog back when it popped up and used it for a few years until it just quit. It's a pretty decent watch, enjoy it.

There are three variants of this watch.

+1 I have too, this is legit

wow thanks for your help guys its exciting to know that its the real deal

Wow these watch are amazing, I want the one on the left with Link !
