Another great timepiece.

 

Victorian Waltham full hunter pocket watch. 

 

Dates to c1898 making it c124 years old. In great condition. 5cm (50mm) across the case.

 

A handsome 1888 in a 14ct gold filled case. In good condition, no scratches,  no major dings or dents. One small ding to rear cover towards the edge, some very minor signs of wear to the outer hinge areas. No personalised engravings or monograms. The front and rear covers open to 90 degrees, good hinges. Front cover pops open with a depression of the crown, as it should. 

 

Crown set and wind, pull the crown out to set the time.

 

The dial is bright and clean, no hairline cracks or chips. Roman numerals and signed "American Waltham USA". 

 

Gold hands.

 

Mineral glass crystal, perfect.

 

The movement is a Waltham model 1888 dating to 1898. Recently fully serviced including modern alloy "unbreakable" mainspring. Tested, runs well and keeps good time.

 

With 18ct gold plated Albert chain and 18ct plated shield fob. 32cm from T bar to end of clip. Colour matches the watch perfectly.

 

Presented in a pocket watch case and velvet pouch for the chain.

 

Great for wedding, graduation, retirement, Christmas, Fathers day or birthday present. A very nice piece.

 

Recently Fully Serviced, including modern alloy "unbreakable" mainspring.

 

Serviced.

 

Servicing is defined as the piece being disassembled, cleaned, inspected and adjusted if necessary. It is then re-assembled and correctly oiled, timed for accuracy and adjusted if required. The mainspring will be replaced with a modern alloy type and the piece will be bench-tested for at least one day.

 

Statement.

 

I restore all of my watches to a fully working condition. It is my aim to provide a watch that is not only running but working to a usable state. My watches can be worn and used for their intended purpose on a daily basis. The time keeping should certainly be within +- 5 minutes per 24 hours but I aim for +-3 or better. I do offer guarantees, the details of which can be found on my website for Time Pocket Watches. I have many years experience and a vast catalogue of Waltham spares and parts.

 

Photography.

 

My highly detailed photographs show the watch in detail, this level of detail is not normally seen by the naked eye. The watch will look even better in real life.
