English bull's-eye pocket watch in silver

This English-made “bull's-eye” pocket watch is an emblematic piece of the elegance and watchmaking craftsmanship of its time.

The triple case in sterling silver gives it solid robustness while preserving a refined and distinctive appearance. Its design stands out immediately thanks to the front cover fitted with a circular window, allowing the time to be read without opening the watch. The window is decorated with black enamel, with gilt Roman numerals serving as hour markers, creating an elegant and understated contrast that highlights its aesthetic functionality.

Inside, the white enamel dial offers great beauty and excellent legibility, while the blued steel hands ensure remarkable visibility, testifying to the care devoted to detail and the quality of manufacture. The 7-jewel movement with monometallic balance is a precision mechanism ensuring good performance over time. The dust cover in silver, made with the same care as the rest of the piece, provides additional protection for the mechanism.

The cover, finely engraved with a commemorative dedication marking the retirement of an English serviceman in 1909, adds a historical and sentimental dimension to the piece. The mirror back finally adds a touch of luxury and a meticulous finish, the polished metal reflecting the artisanal craftsmanship that gave rise to this unique watch.

Every detail is complemented by the London hallmarks, which guarantee the authenticity of the watch and certify its quality, in accordance with the standards of the time. This watch is not only a useful instrument for measuring time, but also an elegant collector's item, bearing witness to the great tradition of English watchmaking.

Diameter: 52 mm.
