Antique Silver Pocket Watch and Chain, C1900

The watch has a ¾ stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover, there are a couple of scratches on this inner cover.

The watch itself measures 48mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are Continental hallmarks inside the two back covers. There is some light surface marking from use and a little unevenness to the back but overall the condition is good for its age.

The acrylic lens is in good condition.

The dial has blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track. There are a couple of faint hairline cracks but they are not too noticeable to the naked eye. The hands are pin set.

The watch comes with a silver single chain which measures 31cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. The chain is hallmarked for 1899 and each of the lions has the lion passant mark.

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