Early 20th Century Galonne Cased Pocket Watch

The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover. The watch itself measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is Continental 800 silver with a rose gold wash and the bezel and the outer edge of the hinged case back. This is known as a galonne case and watches of this design were very popular in the Scandinavian countries at the beginning of the 20th Century. It is in good condition with just the odd minor mark. The lens is in good condition. The dial is signed with the name of the original retailer, C M Storckenfeldt, Göteborg. Handsome stylised numbers, a subtle two tone finish to the dial, a subsidiary seconds dial, handsomely shaped hands and an outer minute track. There is some freckling to the centre of the dial. The watch will be sent in a new presentation box. All of our watches are checked over before listing and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
