A substantial 175 year old Sterling silver English lever Fusee pocket watch, in good working order and presentable condition.

This Antique Georgian Era Verge Fusee Pocket Watch features a sterling silver case with bold Roman numerals on a clear dial. This classic timepiece is a perfect addition for collectors or enthusiasts of antique timepieces, offering a piece of history from the Georgian era. The hour and minute hands are missing, also the key. The white dial with black numerals is enamel on copper, common for 1750s-1850s era.
The London English Fusee Pocket Watch with Sterling Case is a beautifully crafted timepiece with a size 16 R. Wright & Co movement. Made in the United Kingdom, this pocket watch features a mechanical (manual) movement and a sterling case, adding a touch of elegance to any outfit. The intricate design and quality construction make it a stunning piece for any watch enthusiast or collector. Watch does not currently run.
The British Hallmark on the case is a Running Lion which indicates its made of Sterling Silver, the anchor mark indicates Birmingham manufacture location. The hallmark for the age is hard to decipher. I have pics of both the inside of the inner snap back case which holds the movement and the inside back of the outer case. View my last pic – its a closeup of the marks on the outer case. I posted pics to a Pocket Watch Facebook Group and one of the members suggested that its a C with two Vertical Bars through the middle – which would date it to 1826. Regardless it most likely dates to the 1820s – 1840s or there about time frame. The letter J H indicates the case maker – who I believe stands for Joseph Harris – Case Maker – The Butts, Coventry. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THIS ITEM WILL REQUIRE SIGNATURE CONFIRMATION TO BE ACCEPTED BY THE CARRIER. The diameter of the outer case measures approx 58mm or 2-1/4. The dial face is excellent albeit the minute hand is missing. The case is in real nice condition – natural toning / tarnish as you can see. The serial number stamped on the movement is No. The movement is wound with a key and the hands are set with a separate key as the square on the stem for adjustment is larger than the size for winding the movement. The keys that I used are not included in the sale. The watch is NON FUNCTIONAL – Please read the condition report as I have provided some details. The good thing is that the balance wheel spin freely and when I spin it – it spins freely. As noted the hour hand is absent. The hands are set with a key but I want to noted that the size of the square on the front cannon pinion is larger than the winding arbor on the back. The square appears worn. View the pics to assess.
