Antique Silver Pocket Watch from Dimier Frères

An antique silver pocket watch from Dimier Frères et Cie.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the logo of Dimier Frères & Cie, a large importer of Swiss watches. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 48mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks for London (import mark), 1912 with a maker's mark for Dimier Brothers & Co (the London branch of Dimier Frères & Cie). The case is in good condition, just a little unevenness to the back but nothing too serious. The engine turned detail to the back of the case is still nice and crisp.

The watch glass is in good condition.

The white enamel dial is in good condition. Blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.

The watch comes with an interest single chain which measures 26cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.

The watch and chain will be sent in a new presentation box.
