Description

Antique mono-pusher chronograph pocket watch and chain.

The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement, identified as by Valjoux, which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is marked as being argentan, a nickel silver alloy. It is in lovely condition, as is the acrylic lens.

The dial is in lovely original condition, just a short scratch between 2 and 3, but it is really only visible through a magnifying loupe. Two subsidiary dials, one for constant seconds and the other to record up to 30 minutes. There is also a red inner 24 hour dial. Pin-set hands.

The watch comes with a single chain, 25cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.

The watch and chain come in an antique Bravingtons presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Antique Chronograph Pocket Watch to the 1900s.

FAQs

The chronograph complication was developed in the 19th century to allow precise timing of events, initially utilized for astronomical measurements, horse racing, and industrial applications before becoming popular as a portable personal accessory.

These timepieces typically feature cases made from sterling silver, gold, or base metal alloys, housing intricate brass and steel mechanical movements with enamel dials and mineral glass crystals.

Authentic pieces can be identified by hallmarks stamped inside the case, the quality and finishing of the mechanical movement, hand-painted enamel dials, and signs of genuine age-related wear on the metal components.

Displaying the item on a dedicated watch stand or within a glass cloche on a desk or mantelpiece allows it to serve as a sophisticated sculptural object that highlights an appreciation for historical craftsmanship.

Preservation requires storing the watch in a stable, dry environment away from direct sunlight, avoiding moisture, and having the mechanical movement professionally serviced and oiled periodically by a horologist.
