Chatelaine pocket watch by Charles Oudin Paris
Abraham-Louis Breguet is arguably the worlds most famous watchmaker whose designs and inventions changed not just the horological world, but the world as a whole, and his most famous apprentice that ever worked under him was Charles Oudin, and here we are proud to have on offer an extremely rare and important chatelaine pocket watch by Charles Oudin.
Made in Paris around 1830, it is astonishing to see the detail and craftsmanship that went into making this incredible piece, from not only the pocket watch aspect , but also the beautiful sterling silver chatelaine to hold it.
A chatelaine was designed to hang on the belt with accessories such as sewing implements hanging from chains or in this case a pocket watch.
From end to end the chatelaine and pocket watch measure 18.7cm in length and the pocket watch 4.4cm wide. The pocket watch case is made from ebony. Ebony is a heavy dense dark brown to black hardwood that is also often associated with chess pieces and across the front of the pocket watch case are Roman numerals on white enamel. The back has in sterling silver the monogram of "RM" that looks wonderful and gives this antique piece an extra addition of history.
Opening the case at the bottom reveals the immaculate and all original white enamel dial that now displays numerals and is signed "Ch. Oudin Breveté" and "Palais Royal 52". The hands are all original and are actually turned by the finger to set the time and the key which itself is ebony and sterling silver has a small ratchet system that when winding the pocket watch will turn one way and wind back the other making it very easy to wind without removing the key from the hole.
The movement inside has been fully serviced and is all original and comes with our twelve month warranty.
This really is a piece of history that you can hold in your hand, and this chatelaine pocket watch by Charles Oudin is just incredible.

A. Lange & Söhne pocket watch
A. Lange & Söhne are regarded as one of the best watch companies in the world right up there with the likes of Patek Philippe and this has been carried from the time that they started to produce pocket watches all those years ago and can be seen in this superb high quality A. Lange & Söhne pocket watch.
In exceptional condition, this Lange & Söhne pocket watch was made in 18ct rose gold, with the colour of the gold having such a beautiful and warm colour to it that is made even more wonderful when you open the cover and reveal the mint condition white enamel dial.
Displaying numerals and sub-seconds, the dial is still so easy to read a century later and the mechanics of it are also in superb condition.
The solid 18ct rose gold case measures 52mm across by 74mm to the top of the bow and has a wonderful solid heft that feels wonderful in the palm of your hand.
This is a crown wind pin set pocket watch meaning that the movement is wound via the crown and the small lever pulled out near the 4 o'clock. However unlike all other lever set pocket watches that require you to push the lever back in, a Lange & Söhne pocket watch eliminates this by elegantly pressing the top of the bow which will push the lever back in with the most discreet "click" to be heard.
Opening the back reveals the immaculate and high grade movement complete with a swan neck regulator and fully jewelled movement that is so beautiful to admire and appreciate the high quality expected from such an illustrious firm.
And to complete the package, this Lange & Söhne pocket watch not only comes with its original box, but under the second large section is a spare glass and under the small circle is a spare mainspring, and also its original papers and personal warranty from Adolf Oppermann who was the retailer of this pocket watch.
This is such an exceptional pocket watch and comes as complete as you would ever want.
