AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This refined timepiece represents a fascinating testimony of watchmaking in the second half of the 19th century, an era in which mechanical precision combined with a sober and elegant aesthetic. The watch stands out for a solid silver case with a diameter of 47 mm and an overall weight of 71.3 grams, dimensions that confer to the object a commanding presence and a pleasant feel to the touch. The white enamel dial, clearly inspired by classical design, features black Roman numerals for the hours and a minute track with slender marks, ensuring immediate and timeless legibility. The heart of the piece is its original mechanical movement, which preserves the traditional winding and regulation via its dedicated key included, an ancient ritual that enhances its historical charm. Despite being over one hundred fifty years old, the watch is in good overall condition and is functioning, ready to be inserted into a prestigious collection or worn as an accessory with a unique character.
