YOU ARE BEING OFFERED: an. Unusual European Style Verge Fusee in original Pair Case Pocket Watch Franch London circa 1740. Interesting and unusual highly engraved European Verge Fusee from a noted London watchmaker Franch circa 1740. This one seems to have everything original (except a minute hand missing) waiting for a proper restoration. There are no English hallmarks on this case and the movement is a French Swiss Style. This is an indication that this watch may have been an European made Verge Fusee that was made for the English market. It is also possible that Franch was the London retailer who imported this from Europe. Regardless I have seen variations of this specific movement which indicates that Franch was a very active maker/retailer. The date is best on my best experience of this style of movement and the posts. Please verify you are satisfied with this information before become the next caretaker. No hallmark on case, Both the inner and outer case is marked with 48 which is an indication that the inner and outer cases were originally together. Please note that the hinges on the back of the inner case are broken and the pin through the bezel and movement does not hold. The back of the case to the bezel and movement. However, when closed, everything fits tightly. SIZE: Dial is 41 mm diameter. DIAL: Roman numerals with Franch on dial. Dial is lose with minor chips and hairlines, please see pictures. CONDITION: The chain is detached and still around the fusee barrel. The hook on chain is intact. The balance seems to move freely.
