Beautiful Rare 1795 Custom named Dial “Thomas Carter” and matching with the movement “Thomas Carter, 1795 of Port Isaac” England, verge fusee Pocket Watch. Outstanding matching silver Pair Case, Silver hall marked (t) 1795 London assay, also with Rarer right facing Duty Mark. Beautiful white colored porcelain dial with nice clear Bold Letters perfectly designating each of the hours, and four sub quarter numbers. This dial has beautiful eye appeal with just a few very faint markings from years of use, otherwise super clean. The matching thick solid Gold hands are a perfect complement. Sharp near spotless high domed Bulls Eye Crystal is beautiful with just to mention a small air bubble in the glass in between “A” and the “R”, undistracting and was formed when they blew the glass. Only adding to the character. All case covers open, close and fit perfect together with nice and tight hinges. Key wind and key set pocket watch runs full length of chain. Balance has beautiful motion. The balance bridge is beautiful with what appears to be two snakes on the footing and ornate scroll work above, as does the left side of the movement. The movement is super clean with blue screws and is regulated by a silver disked regulator with a finger pointing for adjustment. The watch measures approx. 54mm excluding the bow. Pocket watch runs outstanding and keeps great fusee time, last checked about +/- 1 or 2 minutes within approx. 24 hour period hanging from a hook in the vertical position…….. But cannot guarantee accuracy upon sale. These watches are verge type. Meant to keep time, not perfect time 221 years ago. Also special care must be taken not to overwind these old museum pieces. Inside the case is a very crisp and clean old watch makers paper with T. Carter written on the back. Watch is listed in the Watch and Clock makers of the world book with multiple Thomas Carters. Watch comes with a sharp key for winding. Note all of my pocket watches have been personally serviced and restored to there best working order according to there age and condition. This is a super Rare and unique pocket watch. When I was restoring the watch I found underneath the balance bridge the No. 5 as a serial number. The movement has the watch makers name matching the Dial “Thomas Carter” and date “1795″. This leaves me to believe that this must be one of the early pocket watches made by Thomas Carter of Port Isaac and quite possibly one of his own to carry. Truly a very fascinating time piece for the collector and a Great pocket watch to add to any collection.
