Pocket Watch Case

Antique 1860′s Swiss Victorian Silver Cased Key Wind Pocket Watch C3986. Here is a mid-18th century silver pocket watch. This watch was made before the lever or stem set type winding mechanism was invented in the late 1860′s. The size of the watch is just under 46 mm or 1 3/4 in diameter. Condition wise, the second and minute hands are missing. The balance wheel is not moving when I shake the watch back and forth. The unmarked silver watchcase looks good, with only moderate wear. The movement is gold gilt and does not run right. I wound it with the included key and it just takes off with one hand moving fast.
