Description

Interesting antique pocket watch dating from the late 19th to the early 20th century.

The case is made of 800 silver and bears the corresponding hallmarks. The inner cuvette features the period cursive inscription “Reinhold Spiess, Danzig”, linking the watch to the city of Danzig, then part of the German Empire and today Gdańsk, Poland.

The watch is fitted with a Swiss manual-winding mechanical movement with cylinder escapement, featuring gilt brass components. The movement also bears the F–A / S–R regulator markings commonly found on Swiss movements of this period intended for export markets.

Condition

The silver case is in good overall condition considering its age, showing normal signs of wear, light surface scratches and an attractive natural patina.

The movement appears complete and the balance wheel oscillates. The watch has not been recently professionally serviced and accuracy is not guaranteed. A professional service is therefore recommended before regular use.

The photographs form an integral part of the description and accurately show the condition of the watch.
