Description

An antique silver fusee pocket watch and chain.

The watch has key wound fusee movement which is ticking away nicely and the time keeping is good to within around two minutes or so over 24 hours. The movement is signed Skarratt & Co, Worcester. It is protected by an inner fitted cover and a winding key is included.

The watch measures 46mm diameter excluding the stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the two case backs for Chester 1873. The case is in lovely condition.

The watch glass has some marking, appears to be where a label has been, but it only shows at certain angles.

The enamel dial is signed Skarratt, Worcester. There is a faint hairline crack running through the name and some short hairline cracks at the bottom of the dial.

The watch comes with a late Victorian silver watch chain and a silver fob (initials have been scratched onto the shield).
