AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
extraordinary pocket watch signed G. Perret, Le Locle, dating back to 1850. This timepiece is not just an object, but a living testimony to the mechanical revolution that made the Canton of Neuchâtel famous in the 19th century.
Why this watch is a one-of-a-kind piece:
Historical Authenticity: Dating from 1850, it belongs to a golden era of watchmaking. Its natural patina, visible in, is not a sign of wear, but the certificate of originality that only 175 years of history can confer.
Prestigious Mechanical Heart: The caliber is a rare example of hand-finished engineering. The 15 jewels and the precious "rosette" finishes on the wheels demonstrate that it was a high-end watch, commissioned for an elite clientele of the era.
Technical Details: Equipped with a rapid adjustment system (F-S) and original manufacture marks (P.B.), this movement is a symphony of components that even today exude the artisanal craftsmanship that preceded the mass industrial era.
Condition:
The watch preserves its structural integrity. The dial exhibits a fascinating "time-worn" effect that makes it an immediately display-ready piece for any private collection or sector museum.
Case: rose gold = 2.38g = 180€
The watch is perfectly functioning and serviced
Good luck
