Erwin Dekker

This is a very exquisite pocket watch, with a diameter of only 39.8 millimeters. It is wound by a key and was a must-have item for European ladies at that time. The entire watch case is made of 935 pure silver and is further enhanced by a complex hand-engraving technique. The cover and dust-proof cover are printed with the Swiss standing bear silver mark (1881 - 1933, Swiss silver mark, 800‰ silver content; printed partridge silver mark, with a silver content higher than 875‰; printed standing bear silver mark). The standing bear silver mark is printed on the dial and bezel.
The watch crystal is made of glass. As is well known, due to its long history, antique pocket watches are prone to cracking and difficult to remove scratches during storage, maintenance and use. Before the application of sapphire mirror surfaces in pocket watches, acrylic watch crystals gradually replaced glass ones due to their non-breakability and ease of polishing, and were widely used. Most antique pocket watches on the market have acrylic watch crystals. This one still retains the glass crystal, although it has some scratches, the original and authentic appearance is what is truly precious.
The dial of the watch is made of enamel, with hand-painted Roman numeral scales, and gold and silver embellished patterns are set around and in the center. This kind of craftsmanship is generally called a gold-inlaid dial. It is elegant and luxurious.
When the watch case is opened, what catches the eye is the gold-plated brass dust-proof cover, along with the original dust-proof cover of the case, providing double-layer protection for the movement. Generally, for small-sized pocket watches, there is only a dust-proof cover, and rarely a dust-proof cover. The movement is hand-engraved with the words "H. Samuel Manchester" and "SWISS MADE", indicating that this pocket watch is a Swiss production specifically for the British market. I was fortunate to obtain this pocket watch, which is also a kind of fate. Over 100 years have passed, and this pocket watch still keeps accurate time, making it a rare piece of handicraft.
