We have seen a vast rise in the demand for Antique Pocket Watches here at LoveAntiques.com in recent months, which could be down to the popularity of recent period dramas such as Peaky Blinders and Downton Abbey or simply because they make for timeless gifts. Whatever the reason is for this surge in sales, we're sure you'll have your own reason for loving Antique Pocket Watches. Our Dealer of The Month has a deep-rooted love for Antique Pocket Watches that stems from a rather endearing childhood memory. Leslie Licht, the founder of Euro Antique Watches, recalls a fond memory from his childhood where he was sat holding a beautiful Silver IWC Schaffhausen Pocket Watch belonging to his Grandfather, and became transfixed watching the second hand travel steadily around the face of the watch. He had a very close bond with his Grandfather, and when he sadly passed away years later, Leslie inherited this Pocket Watch, so of course, the watch serves as a memory of his dear Grandfather. From then on, Leslie started collecting Pocket Watches and in 1985 this hobby became a business and he established Euro Antique Watches. He started trading at Antiques Fairs, meeting customers and making business contacts, which brought him much enjoyment and great satisfaction, especially when seeing the delight in his customers faces when they purchased one of his Pocket Watches. With times changing and on-line services growing, Leslie made the decision in more recent years to solely trade online, selling mostly Antique Pocket Watches and the occasional clock or pocket watch fob and chain. He takes pleasure in listing new items on LoveAntiques.com and when asked what he enjoys most about the products he sells, he advised us that he mostly enjoys the high-quality technical movements, and is fascinated by the craftsmanship that goes in to these 'true pieces of art' When it comes to customer service, Leslie says, "My motto is: The client is king! I always offer my best service, and as a result I have received a large amount of very positive feedback regarding both service and packaging over the years. Buying at Euro Antique Watches is guaranteed to be a great experience" So whether you're looking for a gift or simply wanting to add to your own collection, make sure you take a look at the superb array of stock on offer from Euro Antique Watches.

Description
This is a Victorian silver verge open-face pair case pocket watch made in London, England in 1801. It comes complete with its own key. The watch has just been serviced and cleaned by my watchmaker and is in excellent condition! Dial:- The white enamel dial has black handwritten Roman numerals with black outer five-minute divisions. The dial has elegant golden hands. The high dome bevelled bulls-eye glass is in excellent condition. Movement:- The English verge gilt key-wound movement has a plain cock and silver disc regulator. The movement has attractive engravings with round baluster pillars. The movement is signed “M Williams, London” and numbered 9208. The movement is in excellent working condition as it has just been serviced and cleaned, but we cannot guarantee absolute accuracy for an antique pocket watch. Case:- This verge pocket watch comes in a nice silver open face pair case with a smooth finish on both cases. The inner side of the case is hallmarked Silver, London 1801 and numbered 9208. All the hinges clasp and the buttons are strong with both cases closing firmly. The pair case has an original watch paper inside. Both the movement and the case have identical watch numbers (9208) – proving the watch is genuine! See book: Watchmakers and Clockmakers of the World by Brian Loomes: page 842: Williams.
