Vintage 1880s Swiss mechanical open-face pocket watch featuring a 39.45mm "Fine Silver" (.925 sterling or higher) case. The inside caseback displays a polished finish stamped with an official British import style Imperial Crown hallmark over the text "FINE SILVER", case serial number 92506, and a hand-etched service log, while the outer back cover showcases an intricately engraved floral repoussé design. The exceptional solid sterling silver dial features a highly detailed engine-turned perlage finish, an engraved central floral rose medallion, painted black Roman numeral hour paths, delicate blued steel hands, and a raised, decorative 24K gold-fused outer tracking ring border adorned with high-relief gold leaf and circular dot accents. The watch is powered by a classic Swiss gilt cylinder-escapement bridge movement configured for key-winding and key-setting via the rear movement arbors, equipped with a finely engraved balance cock bridge piece and vibrant ruby endstones, paired with its matching vintage gold-toned winding key.This mechanical pocket watch is running as of the time of listing, though a professional service is required for accurate timekeeping, and extended runtime without service is not guaranteed.
