Description

Antique Vertex pocket watch and chain.

The watch has a high grade 16-jewel stem-winding movement, which screw set jewels and swan neck regulator, which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is the gold filled Moon model from the Dennison Watch Case Company. The case is in lovely condition, as is the acrylic lens (some white reflection showing in the photos).

The dial looks good to the naked eye… if viewed through a jeweller’s loupe, there are four very faint short hairlines. Original blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute track.

The watch comes with a single chain, 32cm long including the T-bar and the clasp.

The watch and chain come in a new presentation box.

Date of Manufacture

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this Antique Vertex Pocket Watch to the 1930s.

Vertex was established in London in 1912 by Claude Meyers and became renowned for producing robust, high-precision timepieces, eventually supplying watches to the British military during the Second World War.

Pocket watches from this era were typically constructed from precious metals such as gold, silver, or gold-filled brass cases, housing intricate brass and steel mechanical movements protected by glass or crystal dials.

Authentic pieces typically feature signed dials, movements, and case backs bearing specific makers marks, serial numbers, and hallmarks that verify the metal purity and manufacturing origin.

An antique pocket watch can be displayed on a desktop stand, within a glass cloche on a mantelpiece, or framed in a shadow box to add a touch of horological heritage to a study or living space.

To maintain functionality and value, mechanical watches should be wound gently at consistent times, kept away from moisture and extreme magnetic fields, and serviced periodically by a professional horologist.
