1917 Ww1 Silver Officer's Full Hunter Trench Watch

A WW1 Officer's silver full hunter trench watch.

The watch has a Swiss hand-winding movement which is ticking away nicely and the time keeping is good to within around three to four minutes over 24 hours.

The watch measures 34mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the fixed wire lugs. The case is sterling silver and there are hallmarks for London (import mark) 1916, with an importer's mark for A G Rendell. There is a charming and intricate monogram to the front cover, together with the year 1917. The case has the odd mark, a slight indentation to the front and evidence of an earlier thread through style strap to the back but overall the condition is very nice for such an early piece.

The button underneath the winding crown pushes to open the front cover. The watch glass is in very nice condition. The black dial has some hairline cracks radiating from the number 10. Skeleton hands (some of the infill has fallen out) and a subsidiary seconds dial.

A later black leather strap has been fitted.
