Pocket Watch Case

A beautiful mid 18th century silver Verge pocket watch hallmarked for London 1745. The watch was made during the reign of King George II in the same year as the Jacobite rebellion of 1745. The outer case is in good condition with no major dents and is engraved with the Initials’J. R’ encircled with an ear of maize, however it doesn’t snap shut as it should. The inner case is in good condition and snaps shut just fine. It is also engraved with The name’J. Rogers’ which matches the initials on the outer case. It is hallmarked for London in 1745. The movement itself was made by’J. Josephson’ and is beautifully engraved as well as having a unique White Porcelain dial with the name’Thomas, Minerds’ painted on it in place of numerals. I have examined and cleaned the watch and found it requires a new Balance spring in order for it to run however this is a cheap and easy fix. The watch weighs 82.68 grammes (2.91 Ounces) and the outer case measures 4.7 centimetres (1.85 inches) in circumference excluding the Bow and stem.

1775 Silver Pair Case Square Pillar Verge Painted Dial Chatelaine Pocket Watch. Although signed Wilders London the bridge balance staff cock tends to tell a different story ie that this watch was probably made in Holland and is Dutch in origin , or made elsewhere on the continent for the Dutch market. The inner case though is London made and is hallmarked London 1775 while the original outer repousse case is, as is usual, unmarked (there are some small holes i n this caused by wear that you can see in the photos). It comes with its original silver key but this is too worn to use. I will supply a properly fitting key alongside the original one. The watch is in very nice condition otherwise goes well and still keeps good time. A lovely old item. Diameter of inner case 40mm approx, outer case 50mm approx, and 280mm is the overall length from top of chatelaine clip to bottom of case. This watch came from O m b e r s l e y C o u r t.
