Sterling silver pair case pocket watch made by N. Preston with a London hallmark for 1811. Preston is listed in G. Working well runs the full length of the chain, and keeps time, within 5 minutes day. The dial is cracked and the glass has damage, check the photos. Over 200 years old, look after it and it could survive another 200 years. The 2 hallmarks are matching. Original service papers dated 1823, 1824, 1830 and another that I can’t read the date.
