Big Beautiful Stunning looking English made by the famous Robert Roskell Liverpool serial no. 8017 much rarer 30 tooth Rack lever fusee. The Rack lever was superior in quality and time keeping over the more common verge. The movement comes in a beautiful Solid Sterling Silver matching pair case hall marked (q) 1831 from London assay. The early Robert Roskell movement is dated back to 1818 and was placed in a later date case which fits perfect with the original key hole closed up nicely. The absolutely flawless white porcelain dial is signed “Samuel Lewis, Liverpool” who was a jeweler from 1814-48 and used his dial on the famous R. The Gold colored hands and sub seconds hand are beautiful. When I removed the dial I found and old inscription W. Doyle May 8th 1818 on the movement which correlates with the early serial number. Super spotless bulls eye crystal. All case covers open, close and fit perfectly. He made fine Rack lever fusees and used Litherland’s rack lever escapement. Key wind and key set pocket watch runs full length of chain. The polished flat steel balance has super motion with a nice loud tick. Typical of Roskell with The three footed balance bridge with diamond end stone and the word ” patent” for his rack levers. All the screws, push arrow index for regulating and even the spring and lever for the fusee cone power maintain are all sharply blued. The stop/start switch is amazing and actually stops when switched then starts right back up again when switched back. The Rare 30 tooth escape wheel has the unique 15 second rotation not the 60 as on the dial. Inside the inner case also has a old watch makers paper from Pokeepsie N. The watch measures approx. 57mm excluding the bow. Pocket watch runs outstanding and keeps great fusee time, last checked about 1/2 a minute fast within approx. 24 hour period hanging from a hook in the vertical position………….. But I cannot guarantee accuracy upon sale. This is a rack lever fusee meant to keep time, not perfect time 194 years ago. Pocket watch comes with a sharp key for winding. Note all of my pocket watches have been serviced and restored to there best working order according to there age and condition. I personally carried this watch around and found it to be an outstanding working “Roskell” Rack lever that keeps Great time, making it a much rarer time piece to own. Truly one of my favorite watch makers. The item “Stunning 1818 Rack Lever fusee silver pair case pocket watch by Robert Roskell” is in sale since Saturday, November 19, 2016.
