Pocket watch · Open-face pocket watch

This open-face pocket watch is presented in a sterling silver case manufactured by the Dennison Watch Case Company, bearing official Birmingham silver hallmarks. The watch is signed on the dial for the retailer Harris Stone of Leeds. Dating to approximately 1928, the watch is accompanied by a 27 cm sterling silver chain and a horse-and-horseshoe silver fob. The movement is a Swiss-made, manual-wind mechanical caliber by Record Watch Co., containing fifteen jewels. The dial features black Arabic numerals, blued steel hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial at the six o'clock position. The case back incorporates a traditional decorative motif. According to the source, the watch is in good working order, and the silver elements, including the hallmarked chain, remain in noted condition. The combination of a Swiss movement and English Dennison case was a frequent configuration for watches distributed in Britain during this era.
