Antique Minerva Half Hunter Pocket Watch

Antique Minerva half hunter pocket watch.

The watch has a good quality stem-winding movement which is working nicely. This is a good quality movement with 15 jewels (4 adjustments) which is working nicely. The movement has a Breguet hairspring for enhanced precision and a micro-regulator. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated. It is in good condition, just three small “dings” to the back, nothing too serious at all. The front cover has a small central lens surrounded by dark blue enamel filled numbers.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside, there is an acrylic lens which is in good condition. There is a small “ding” to the bezel.

The dial is in lovely condition, just a little darkening to the subsidiary seconds dial, and it has the special half hunter hour hand so that the time can be read when the front cover is closed.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
