A 1920s Fleurier Half Hunter Pocket Watch.

A 1920s Fleurier half hunter pocket watch.

The watch has a good quality stem-winding movement with 21 jewels , two adjustments and jewelled pallets, which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The Fleurier Watch Company was founded in 1858 by Jules-Samuel Jéquier and the company supplied movements to several watch brands.

The watch itself measures 50.6mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is 10ct gold filled and is the Moon model made by the Dennison Watch Case Company. The case has light surface marks from use but overall it is in nice condition. The front cover has a small lens surrounded by enamel filled Roman numerals. some of the infill is missing although hardly noticeable to the naked eye.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside there is an acrylic lens which is in good condition

The white enamel dial has a couple of faint hairline cracks although they can only be seen through a jeweller loupe. Note the special hour hand for half hunter watches, so that the hands can be distinguished between when the front cover is closed.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Price includes worldwide postage.
