MOVEMENT : Gilded cylinder movement. A few scratches to the gilding, but otherwise in good condition, and running well.

DIAL : A beautiful, engine turned silver, asymmetrical dial, signed under the hour window. A few light marks but in overall very nice condition. Blued steel hands.

CASE : Slim, rose gold case, engine turned to the back and bezel. The gilt brass cuvette is signed, numbered (1813) and engraved as follows : ‘ECHAPPEMENT A CYLINDRE QUATRE TROUS EN RUBIS’. The inside of the outer cover is marked with the serial no. (1813) and has 18 carat Swiss gold marks. The engine turning is a little worn, and there is a short split (2 mm) from the neck on the back, but otherwise the case is fine. The hinge are good and the covers close tightly.
