Antique Silver Record Pocket Watch and Albert

Antique silver Record pocket watch and albert

The watch has a Swiss 15-jewel stem-winding movement, believed to be a Record, which is working nicely. 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 inside the case backs for London 1919 with an importer's mark for George Stockwell.

From 1 June 1907, Stockwells acted as assay agents, facilitating the import into Britain of foreign gold and silver items, which had to be assayed and hallmarked in a UK assay office before being released for retail.

The case is in good condition, just the odd minor mark but nothing serious.

The main face of the watch glass is in good condition, there are a couple of small chips underneath the bevelled edge but not very noticeable to the naked eye.

The enamel dial has a small chip above the centre of the sub seconds dial and a very faint hairline running up from number 8.

The watch comes with a hallmarked silver double albert, with each chain measuring 19cm long.

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