Here for sale is an attractive antique
Langdon Davies & Co “Chronometer Lever” pocket watch
housed in a
Swiss .935 silver case
.
The watch is key wind and key set and retains its original enamel dial with Roman numerals and subsidiary seconds dial.
The movement is signed
Langdon Davies & Co
and is a Swiss lever movement made for the English market.
Condition
The watch
winds and runs well
and the
seconds hand operates correctly
, showing a healthy running movement.
However there is a
fault with the motion works
as the
hour and minute hands do not advance while the watch is running
, although they move freely when the time is set. This is likely a cannon pinion motion works issue and is reflected in the price.
The enamel dial is in
very good condition overall
with only light signs of age visible under close inspection.
The
0.935 silver case
remains in good condition with normal age related marks and wear but no major dents.
