Object description

Identity and Case Construction

The lot is catalogued by Ashley Waller Auctioneers as a full hunter pocket watch featuring a 9-carat gold case attributed to Dennison. Configured in hunter form, the front hunter cover is hinged open, revealing the dial and crystal alongside a fluted winding crown and an oval bow positioned at 3 o'clock.

Because internal case lids, hallmarks, and sponsor marks are not displayed or legible in the available lot photo, the 9-carat gold standard and Dennison case manufacture remain source-reported claims.
