Rare Pair Cased Sterling Silver Fusee Cylinder Pocket Watch Fra. Perrigal 1804
A very interesting and most important silver case watch. SIGNED FRANCIS PERIGAL LONDON (UK) C1804. PLEASE DO TAKE TIME TO READ THE FULL LISTING AND DO ENLARGE THE PHOTOGRAPHS TO GET A BETTER LOOK. The size of the outer silver case is 45 m. And is in very good condition, with a very nice clean watchmakers paper so nice to have and rounds this fine watch off. The size of the case with then watch is 43 m. Both cases are well hallmarked London 1804. All the hinges work well on the cases. Very nice gold hands. The glass is very high bull nose clean and clear. The fire gilt movement looks just like the day it left the work shop. The watch runs well C + or 2- 3 minutes per hour. With a very very fine engraved back plate with a decorated and engraved balance cock and a silver Tompion regulator. Highly unusual original English bridge type balance clock. A scintillating feature if this watch is that it demonstrates a cylinder escapement of the highest quality and its unusually made of steel rather than typical brass which was commonly used in this period. According to a late 19th century pamphlet; the cylinder steel escape wheel would have taken a highly skilled watch maker one day and a half to produce and another day to finish. Signed on the back plate FRANCIS PERRIGAL The watch will come with a key. PERRIGAL IS A WELL LISTED MAKER. WATCH WILL COME WITH A KEY AND HAS A NICE WATCH PAPER TO ROUND IT ALL OFF. Just great to have such an amazing and interesting watch that is as good as this one, and it just has every thing one could want on a fine verge watch, very hard to find a watch in this condition with all that it has going for it. This watch is so very well priced, and well presented. An absolute must for any serious collector or would make a wonderful present. I endeavour to find both quality and unusual pieces and describe and photograph them as accurately as possible. Thank you kindly for your custom.
