Description

Antique silver Limit pocket watch, 1917.

The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Limit name, Limit were importers of watches into the UK, and they were based in Oldham in Lancashire, UK. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50.5mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are silver London import marks inside the two case backs for 1917 with a case importers mark for George Stockwell. The case is in good condition, just light surface marking from use and a couple of mild bruises to the outer edge but nothing too serious at all.

The watch glass is in lovely condition.

The dial is signed Limit and has a couple of very faint hairline crack although not noticeable to the naked eye.

The watch has its original blued steel hands.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
