Exclusive Silver and Chatelaine Ball Watch 1865
You are bidding on a silver ball watch with chatelaine and original key made in France in 1865. This ball watch has a white enamel dial with black Roman numerals and outer minute divisions. The dial has nice hands and a ball magnifying glass. The glass on the last side is nicely engraved with the initials: "VM". (See pictures). The cylinder movement is protected by a cuvette and the movement is in great working condition, however we cannot guarantee accuracy for an antique watch.
The movement is signed: "Gustave Sandoz, 147 Palais Royal". The cuvette is signed: "Gustave Sandoz, Horloger de la Marine Impériale, Palais Royal147, Paris. N° 2067". The inner side of the cuvette is numbered: 2480.
