Pocket Watch: Antique Silver Waltham Traveler Pocket Watch

The watch has a seven jewel Traveler grade stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 17,359,410 which dates it back to 1908. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has a little unevenness and scratching. The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside both of the case backs for London (import mark) 1915, with a sponsor’s mark for George Stockwell. From 1 June 1907, Stockwells acted as assay agents, facilitating the import into Britain of foreign gold and silver items which had to be assayed and hallmarked in a UK assay office before being released for retail. The case has engine turned detail to the back, with a central vacant cartouche. There is some fairly gentle unevenness to the back of the watch. The movement and case are not original to each other. The glass lens is in good condition. The signed dial is in lovely condition. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage.
