F.W. Rosenthall open-face pocket watch with a silver case (45 mm diameter), movement Anders, and a accompanying Albert chain, in working order with noticeable wear.
Description from the seller
This is an antique vintage pocket watch with an accompanying watch chain (Albert chain).
Features of the watch
Type & Design: A classic pocket watch with an open-face dial. It has a white enamel or porcelain face with clean Arabic numerals.
Small seconds: At the bottom at the 6 o’clock position there is a recessed sub-dial for the second hand (the small seconds).
Brand/Inscription: The dial bears a brand name or the name of a jeweler printed on it (such as "F.W. Rosenthall" or a similar maker).
Case: The case shows a slight discoloration or patina, indicating a silvered, steel, or alloy case that has aged over time.
Chain & attachment: The pocket watch is attached to a metal link chain with a musketeer hook/ring and a clasp pin (or clamp metal) at the end, intended to fasten to a waistcoat, vest, or trouser belt.
Estimated Period
This design type with this specific typography and dial layout generally comes from the late 19th century to the early 20th century (circa 1890–1930).
If you carefully open the back of the case (or have a expert open it), you’ll often find hallmarks, silver or gold stamps, serial numbers, and the winding mechanism of the movement, which help to determine the exact year of manufacture and the maker more precisely.
