WE USUALLY LIST MORE ITEMS EACH EVENING ABOUT 8PM. Beautiful Victorian Pair Cased Solid Silver Doctor’s Pocket Watch & Albert Chain circa 1852. Lovely interesting pocket watch. The dial in very nice condition for its age. The blued steel poker hands with fleur de lis type designs also in very nice order. Large sub seconds dial. Also on the base of the inner case, there is a little flip switch that allows the watch to be stopped and started. Pair cased, meaning the outer case separates from the inner as shown in photos, the watch still has its original bullseye glass. Fully hallmarked solid silver for London 1852 on the inner case. Outer case is different hallmark and a bit earlier and is hallmarked for London 1818, so I think the outer case has been added later. Case width approx 62mm. Base to bow approx 80mm. Nice thick albert chain approx 13 inches in length and 7.5mm width. Very nice and heavy. Would make a super gift for a doctor or collector.

All made in association with Edward, his son. George Prior born 22nd March 1735 apprenticed to his Uncle Thomas Prior of Prescot Street, London c1750 -57. In August 1787 he bought the substantial manor House called “The Lawns” at Sydenham nr Lewisham. George Prior died on 23rd April 1814 aged 79.
