Antique 1911 Silver Pocket Watch and Chain

Antique 1911 silver pocket watch and chain.

The watch has a good quality Swiss 17-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. This is a very nice movement with swan neck regulator, jewelled pallets and a Breguet hairspring.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the screw-on case back for Birmingham 1911, with a case maker's mark for Aaron Dennison, a prolific manufacturer of cases for various watch factories.

The case is in good condition and there are ornate initials to the case back.

The watch glass has a light 3mm scratch but you need to look quite closely for it.

The dial is in lovely condition and has original blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and a subsidiary seconds dial.

The watch comes with a single chain,37cm long. There is also a shorter chain attached which has a tassel. The chain is not hallmarked but has tested as being silver, probably Continental 800 silver.

The watch and chain will come in a new presentation box.
