1895 Silver 3/4 Plate Pocket Watch Fredrick Dixon London

Antique 1895 silver 3/4 plate Fredrick Dixon, London, pocket watch.

The watch has a 3/4 plate stem-winding movement which is ticking away and the time keeping is good to around 2 - 3 minutes over 24 hours. The movement is stamped Fredrick Dixon, 394 Oxford Street, London and numbered 12757.

The watch measures 49.1 mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the loop. The case has Chester hallmarks for 1895 with the case makers mark J.J.S. (John James Stockall & Sons). The case has some wear to the engine turned detail and the odd small ding but overall it is in nice condition for its age. The inner dust cover has some play in the hinge although it opens and closes as it should.

The watch lens is glass and has a small nibble under the lens at 6 o'clock but otherwise it is in nice condition.

The white enamel dial is in nice condition.

The watch has its original blued steel hands.

Price includes free world wide postage.
