Bourquin Geneve Sterling Silver Enamel Dial Verge Fusee Small Pocket Watch, 1840

About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Bourguin Geneve STYLE / REFERENCE: Pendant Pocket Watch METAL / MATERIAL: Silver DIMENSIONS: Diameter 32mm CIRCA: 1840's MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Verge Fuzee DIAL / HANDS: Original Enamel, Roman Numbers / Blued Steel Breguet Hands WARRANTY: 12 months on the movement. LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This early Genovese pocket watch has an original verge fuzee movement. Remarkably, as old as it is the dial is excellent and it still has its original blued steel hands in the Breguet Style. As can be seen in the photo the Breguet Engine Turned back shows very little wear. It is unique to find a watch this old that appears to have never been used. This watch runs well and if you had the imagination to wear it on occasion you could depend on it.

By Howard
Located in Long Beach, CA
FACTORY / HOUSE: Howard Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: 12 Size / Open Faced Pocket Watch METAL / MATERIAL: Yellow Gold Filled CIRCA / YEAR: 1918 DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Diameter 47mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding / 19 Jewels / High Grade DIAL / HANDS: Original Kiln Fired Enamel / Blued Steel Hands ATTACHMENT / LENGTH: Gold Filled Chain / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement This is a "vault find" watch, it has been locked up for nearly 50 years, which means it needs a service. We will service it for you as part of the purchase price before it is shipped out to you. This will delay shipping for a few days of course. LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This great looking and classic man's pocket watch is still fitted with a flawless and original Kiln Fired Dial. These dials were made of glass and fired in a furnace at 1500 degrees. The watch is all original as well, still with its original blued steel hands. The watch is very dependable even now, but it should be serviced (which we will do included in the price). The cuvette is finely engraved with a presentation to a Captain Keller. Wherever he is, his watch is still running and will continue to run for another 200 years with a service occasionally.
