Large Antique Silver Waltham Full Hunter Pocket Watch

Large antique silver Waltham full hunter pocket watch.

The watch has a stem-winding movement, grade 84 which was in production from 1896 until 1902, which is working nicely. The movement is lever set, has a Church 1892 patent regulator and Breguet hairspring for enhanced precision. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 6,890,298 which dates it back to between 1896 and 1898. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 58mm diameter excluding the winding stem and is coin silver. Coin silver is 90% silver as opposed to sterling silver which is 92.5%. The case was made for Waltham by the Crescent Watch Case Company. The case is decorated on both front and back, and it is in good condition.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside, there is a glass lens which is in lovely condition.

The dial is in good condition with just one short hairline underneath the subsidiary seconds dial. The lever to adjust the hands is on the bezel, just underneath the number 5.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
