Description from the seller

French watchmaking

Probably Mugnier HGER DU ROI - Paris

Beautiful and interesting 18Kt gold watch with an extraordinary dial and movement plate design — ultra-thin construction (6mm) with negative winding = key with square drive.

Silver dial with black Roman numerals on engraved grooved circle. Outer minute track in black. Delicate, artistically crafted very fine original steel hands with ring inlay - gold-colored. Artistically designed central part featuring depictions of flowers and leaves - very finely worked - masterful. Very good condition.

Very fine gold bezel.

Pages with engraved gold patterns

Masterful jewelry work on the case back, guilloché and decorated. Floral wreath and a flower bush in the center. Worked in detail and very well preserved.

Gilded screwed watch part - ultra-flat. Complete engraving in a narrow fine design - floral. Described in capital letters: cylinder escapement with six holes and rubies.

Lift and hand position (described as atguilles) with a key that has a square end = so-called negative lift.

It works.

Watch diameter 44mm - height with pendant 59.9mm. Height 6mm - weighs 34.3g.

Very fine, appealing craftsmanship and beautiful condition. A rare collector's watch.
