Antique Waltham Marquis Pocket Watch, 1912.

Antique Waltham Marquis pocket watch, 1912.

The watch has a stem-winding movement, Marquis grade, which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and the serial number, 18850031 which dates it back to 1912. This is a nice quality movement with screw set jewels, Breguet hairspring for enhanced precision and gilded plates. The movement is protected by an inner hinged dust cover.

The watch measures 50.4mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is the gold plated and is the Star model made by the Dennison watch case company. The case has minor marking from use but overall it is in nice condition.

The glass lens has the odd minor mark but nothing too noticeable at all.

The signed dial has several very faint hairline cracks although only noticeable through a jewellers loupe but otherwise it is in nice condition.

The watch has its original gold hands and a blued steel sub seconds hand.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
