Pocket Watch Case

A very fine condition gilt brass cased, English made, pocket watch sized aneroid barometer with altimeter, measuring 5 cm wide and 2 cm thick and finely patinated as shown in the pictures. This is a beautifully made instrument, made in ca. 1875 with original morocco leather finished case, with some marks as shown. Mint watches in this condition, can only rise in value, given the limited supply of such items. You can also visit our shop at vintagewatchstore. Where there is a wide variety of fine antique & vintages watches. THE DIAL: 100% mint, the silver dial with black Arabic numerals and in bright condition. The dial with a fine blue steel spade hand. The bevelled crystal is also in excellent condition and retained securely. The dial with adjustment with respect to atmospheric pressure. THE MOVEMENT: 100% mint, with a brass 3/4 baseplate and the aneroid barometer cleaned and in full working order. This instrument is much brighter and crisp than in these dark photos, which are limited by my camera and lighting equipment. The barometer is in very good working order for its age. THE CASE: 80% mint, the gilded brass case measures an impressive 51 mm. The front snap on rotating cover is in excellent condition. The rear cover with an adjuster screw to compensate or adjust position of indicator hand. The case with wear to the gilding as shown. The barometer comes with its original red leather morocco covered case. TERMS AND CONDITIONS: Please note, the magnified electronic images show detail much greater than would be visible with the naked eye. Any dark areas or marks on highly polished surfaces are almost certainly reflections from the camera or lighting equipment. If there are any marks or dents of any note, these will be mentioned in the description. The only exception to this, is if the watch has been misused or damaged.
