Antique Silver Pocket Watch, 1919

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique silver pocket watch, 1919.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has a small patch of scratching where it has been opened in the past.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks on both back covers for London (import mark) 1919 with a sponsor’s mark for Louis Weill. Weill was originally from Bavaria but, by 1881, was listed as a watch maker and importer on Census records. The front and sides of the case are in good condition, some slight unevenness to the hinged case back.

The acrylic lens is in good condition.

The dial is in lovely condition with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute track.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Antique Silver Pocket Watch to the 1910s.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

An open-face pocket watch features a clear protective glass crystal directly over the dial without a hinged front metal cover. Popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these timepieces prioritised immediate legibility for railway workers, professionals, and everyday wearers.

These timepieces commonly feature cases crafted from sterling or continental silver paired with fire-enamelled glass dials. The internal mechanical movements utilize steel, brass, and synthetic ruby jewels to reduce friction across gear pivots.

Authenticity is verified through hallmark stamps struck inside the case back, indicating silver purity, city of assay, and date letter. Genuine movements also feature hand-engraved details, serial numbers, and unprinted vitreous enamel dials.

Pocket watches are frequently displayed under glass dome cloches or suspended from specialized brass pocket watch stands. Positioned on office desks, bookshelves, or side tables, they serve as subtle decorative accents celebrating historic mechanical craftsmanship.

Keep the watch in a dry, temperature-controlled environment to prevent tarnishing and dial moisture damage. Mechanical movements require periodic servicing by a qualified horologist every three to five years to clean components and refresh internal lubricants.
