This early 20th-century open-face pocket watch dates from 1920 and is made of silver with glass and enamel elements. The piece has a silver-coloured finish, featuring a white enamel dial marked with black Roman numerals, the brand name BUREN, and a small subsidiary seconds dial with numbers up to sixty. It includes blued steel hands, a knurled winding crown at the top, and a circular suspension loop ring. The outer casing shows subtle linear surface wear and fine hairline cracks across the white enamel surface. Birmingham hallmarks are stamped on the metal hardware alongside the winding mechanism. The watch works well in a gentleman's library setting or study displayed on a stand. Case width measures 50mm. The design showcases an inner presentation inscription directed to W Latham from ICI dated 1940, alongside a Swiss mechanism signed by Buren containing fifteen jewels and an ALD casemaker number 730125. The dial displays minute markers around the outer perimeter alongside the main hour indicators and a lower seconds sub-dial hand.

The Buren Watch Company was founded in Buren an der Aare, Switzerland, in 1873, becoming well known for producing high-grade mechanical movements and horological components throughout the late 19th and 20th centuries.

Silver pocket watches typically feature solid sterling or continental silver cases, protective glass crystals, blued steel hands, and vitreous enamel dials over copper bases.

Authenticity can be confirmed by examining the maker name on the dial or movement, alongside silver hallmarks stamped inside the case back or on the bow.

An antique pocket watch can be displayed on a dedicated metal or wooden watch stand, housed inside a glass display cloche on a desk, or mounted within a framed shadow box.

Keep the watch in a dry, temperature-controlled environment, polish the casing gently with a soft microfibre cloth, and periodically consult a qualified horologist for mechanical servicing.
