1930s Hexameter Half Hunter Pocket Watch, Mansfield

1930s Hexameter half hunter pocket watch, Mansfield.

The watch has a stem-winding movement, identified as a Revue Thommen, which is working nicely. The movement is signed Hexameter, a brand name registered by the Reichenberg & Cie in 1922. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is the good quality 10ct gold plated Moon model by the English watch case makers Dennison.. Dennison made cases for various watch makers. The case is in lovely condition, just the odd minor mark but nothing serious at all. The front cover has a small central lens surrounded by enamel filled numbers.

The winding stem pushes in to open the front cover. Inside, the glass lens is in good condition.

The dial is signed, albeit faintly, by the name of the original retailer, Martin Wilkinson, Mansfield. Blued steel hands, including the special half hunter hour hand so the time can be read when the front cover is closed. There are some hairline cracks radiating from the centre but they are faint.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.
