Repousse Square Pillar Verge Pair Case Pocket Watch’w Johnson, London’ 1762
The silver repousse outer case is in good general condition which I think depicts a farrier shoeing a horse. The case hinge is tight and the covers meet flush. The catch spring has broken and the catch button missing so doesn’t lock. The inner case is in good general condition and hallmarked for London 1762/3 initials’C. The stem has been re-soldered at sometime past. The outer case measures 50mm in diameter and the inner case 41mm in diameter. The dial and hands are in good general condition. The glass high domed crystal has one small edge chip. The lovely decorative square pillar verge movement is in good general condition. It is signed’W Johnson London 1077′. It has a silvered balance cock and adjacent plates and has a decorative scroll to the end of the steel catch spring. The balance swings fine and the movement runs intermittently, it can run from a few minutes to a few hours so requires a service. Winds and sets fine. The movement is key wind and set, modern keys included (2 keys as wind and set are slightly different sizes).
