Unbranded - Raro Orologio da Tasca Antico Svizzero in...

For genuine collectors and connoisseurs of vintage watchmaking, I present a fascinating and precious pocket watch of Swiss manufacture, dating from the period 1888-1907. This specific specimen stands out for its refined craftsmanship entirely in solid Vermeil silver (solid silver plated with a rich layer of gold): • The Case: Made in solid silver with hallmark 0.935 (purity higher than the classic British sterling silver) with Vermeil finish, enriched along the edges by detailed engravings in floral and geometric motifs. Inside the lid the official Swiss hallmarks of the era (the three running bears), introduced in 1888, are perfectly clear, together with serial number 83525. • The Dial: A true masterpiece of old-world aesthetics, also entirely in Vermeil silver. It features a beautiful work surface with a richly decorated central zone in relief with geometric and floral motifs. The outer minute ring is enhanced by Roman numerals, also applied; given the high level of finish and craftsmanship, these dial ornaments and indices could be in solid gold or Vermeil silver. The watch preserves its ancient ritual intact thanks to the key-wound and key-set hands system with the brass key included in the sale. The mechanical movement is in separate bridges with the classic and reliable cylinder escapement, typical of late 19th-century Swiss excellence. Details and Dimensions: • Case diameter: 39 mm (excluding the pendant) • Total weight: 43.93 grams • Material: Case and dial in Vermeil solid silver (Silver Gold-Plated) • Included accessories: Original antique winding key The watch is currently running and ticking regularly. As it is a vintage mechanical piece and has not been tested over a long period, a professional cleaning and lubrication (conservative overhaul) is recommended to ensure perfect precision and the best timekeeping stability over the years. An extraordinary historical piece of exceptional visual elegance, perfect for enriching a collection or as an outstanding display piece. The attached high-resolution photographs are an integral part of the description and show the exact condition of the object. Tracked shipping performed with extremely careful packaging.
