An 18 Carat Gold Open Faced Pocket Watch, signed Rolex, 1906, lever movement signed, enamel dial with Roman numerals, seconds dial, case with Chester hallmark for 1906, 50mm wide, with a 9 carat gold curb link chain with attached T-bar and bloodstone swivel seal

Sold for £2,200
Estimated at £600 - £800


 

15.01.21 case with surface scratches, dial is clean, movement not working. It appears that the mainspring has broken. Total watch weight 104g. Total chain weight with seal 40.6g. Each chain link is stamped 375, chain in good condition, in my opinion the chain is rose gold. The chain will date around the same period at the watch.
