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.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
