Case and Dial
The watch is housed in a silver pair case, a classic construction featuring an outer shell and an inner case. The silver casing is fitted with an oval-shaped pendant and a matching suspension loop. The dial consists of off-white enamel, which serves as the base for applied black Roman numerals used to mark the hours. Time is indicated through the use of gilt hands, which contrast with the light-toned enamel surface.
The source notes that the silver components bear hallmarks associated with Birmingham in 1839. A specific maker's mark, identified as 'VR', is present on the case. Prospective owners are encouraged to verify the consistency and authenticity of the hallmarking on both sections of the pair case to ensure original assembly.
