An open face eight day pocket watch by Hebdomas. Continental white metal case, stamped 0,800. Unsigned keyless wind eight day movement. White enamel dial with Roman numeral hour markers, exposed balance to six. 49mm.
Movement is currently functioning. However there are several issues to be looked at: The mainspring slips, at points the hands foul each other, stopping the movement. We have been unable to gain access to the movement to be able to report its condition. The movement is mostly hidden underneath the mainspring barrel. What can be seen shows signs of tarnish and detritus with some light marks and scratches. Dial appears to be in an average condition with some light marks and scratches when viewed under a 4x loupe. Hands show marks and tarnishing with discolouration and rust. Glass has noticeable scratches and marks. Chips can be seen to the edges. Case shows scratches, marks and dints. Some of the niello decoration has chipped away. Crown is currently functioning correctly; the surface has noticeable scratches and dinting. This lot does not come with box or papers. Fellows do not guarantee the working order or accuracy of any lots sold. Due to opening of the case back we recommend this watch is re-sealed by an authorised technician to ensure any stated water resistance is retained. Please see the Important Notices for Purchasers in our catalogue and online for any additional considerations that may affect this lot. If you should have further queries regarding this lot, please do not hesitate to contact the Watch Department on 0121 212 5506 or at watches@fellows. co. uk
