MOVEMENT : The gilded verge fusee movement, with a particularly finely engraved and pierced balance cock, is in fine condition and is running well. It is signed and dated (1805).

INNER CASE : Diameter 48 mm. Hallmarks for 18ct gold, London, 1805, maker CM. Good overall condition with no repairs, but one sleeve missing from the hinge and a little wear around the catch. Good high dome crystal with no damage. The case snaps shut nicely.

OUTER CASE : Diameter 53.5 mm. Gold hallmarks matching the inner. The hinge and catch are again fine and the case snaps shut. Excellent overall condition with no damage or wear.
