This magnificent pocket watch not only looks good, but feels magnificent to hold in the palm of your hand thanks to the smooth solid gold case and incredibly robust movement. With the case measuring 45mm across by 63.5mm from the bottom to the top of the bow, this is the perfect example of a gents pocket watch of the time that would have been for no doubt a very eminent and well regarded person.

The dial like the case is spotlessly clean and easy to read with the beautiful traditional Roman numerals and along with being signed with his name, it also has “AD FMSZ” The coded letters AD Fmsz can be seen on the dials and movements on some Frodsham timepieces.
