Firstly “cottage country” means the local watch maker in the village bought parts form the “big city” from the case maker, the dial maker, the wheel maker… You get the picture by now, gathered all the parts he needed and made the rest by hand to produce a pocket watch as I have here, unsigned English movement. This is a work of art and a genuine piece of English history. The 18-karat multicolored case is signed by the case maker A. This is a small piece at only 40mm across. The hinge on this case is perfect and the crystal is glass high dome. The hands are solid gold and original. The enamel dial is also original and repaired around the keyhole area. As mentioned, this is a key wind and key set from the front in the middle of the dial chain fuse driven movement. Every link of this chain has been inspected by myself with my Zeiss microscope and each and every link is strong and secure. All parts have been inspected before the cleaning process and afterwards needless to say. A few winds with the key and off it goes. The era for this incredible multi tested 18 karat gold case fusee is 1740! And ticks up a storm! The chain is gold filled.

This is a wonderful example of a larger silver pair case. Higher end early verge fusee watches were often in a pair case. Pair case refers to when a pocket watch is placed within another case (nesting), therefore two cases. Each nesting perfectly within each other and keeping the inner watch safe from damage. Verge Fusee movements were used in antique spring-powered mechanical watches and clocks. A fusee is a cone-shaped pulley with a helical groove around it, wound with a cord or chain which is attached to the mainspring barrel. Fusees were used from the 15th century to the early 20th century to improve timekeeping by equalizing the uneven pull of the mainspring as it ran down. The mainspring is coiled around a stationary axle (arbor), inside a cylindrical box, the barrel. The force of the spring turns the barrel. Size: Outside Case Diameter is 58mm.
