Antique QUARTER REPEATER REPEATING VERGE FUSEE Pocket Watch ENAMEL PAINTING CASE
Posted by in antique
Nice antique pocket verge fusee watch from very beginning of XIX century. The back cover is decorated with beautiful enamel miniature with galant scene. The enamel is high quality one, most probably Geneva school. Case is made of gilt brass, rim is coin-grooved. Gilt is somewhere worn, and restored. Enamel has minor flakes to the edges, I cannot see any restoration. Painting seems to be without damages. Dust cover is missing locking pin. The dial seems to be in nice condition with tiny defects to edges. Movement is in running condition, ticks in every position, but I don’t guarantee that it keeps time. The repetition strikes hours with one gong, and quarters with other gong of other tonality. Please look video below the photos. Diameter is 55mm, height without bow is 73mm, weight is 132 grams.. Beautiful watch, don’t miss it. I don’t end my auctions early. The item “Antique QUARTER REPEATER REPEATING VERGE FUSEE Pocket Watch ENAMEL PAINTING CASE” is in sale since Sunday, November 06, 2016.
