Nicole, A. Nielsen & Co London 18K Gold Double Hunter 53mm Pocket Watch
Located in MELBOURNE, AU
This important centre second Flyback Chronograph Pocket Watch by Nicole, Nielsen & Co dates back to circa 1864, retailed by Mac Donnell & Co, Sydney (signed to the dial) It is in a great vintage condition & in excellent working order & an ultimate collector’s item - used to belong to William (Bill) Bradshaw. Invented & patented by A. Nielsen, a flyback chronograph is a type of watch that enables the chronograph function to be reset and restarted instantly with a single button press.

Designed as a Double Hunter, (can be opened from both sides allowing the timepiece to stand as a desk clock) the piece is centring a white porcelain regulator format dial, featuring original hands, subsidiary seconds at 9 o'clock, hour indication subsidiary dial at 3 o'clock, minutes and the chronograph indications are on the outer radial dial which features 5-minute makers.

His initials AN are in cameo within a rectangular surround. Powered by Manual Movement, engraved “Nielsen Capt 14 Soho Square, London” and numbered 7602 (meaning the movement was designed for this particular pocket watch) Total item’s weight: 170gr. The piece comes in generic box, accompanied by watch report & 6 months warranty Nicole, Nielsen & Co. was founded in 1839 by Swiss-born watchmakers Charles Victor Adolphe Nicole and Jules Philippe Capt. By 1858, the company had moved to larger premises at 14 Soho Square, where it remained until its closure in 1934. Nicole & Capt produced movements and watches for renowned names such as E. J. Dent, Charles Frodsham, and others. From around 1870 and for the next 60 years, Nicole Nielsen was known for crafting some of the finest and most complex English watches ever made. Their work included tourbillons, chronographs, and bespoke timepieces. In 1844, Adolphe Nicole was granted British patent for a keyless mechanism for fusee...
