c1900-This open face chronograph pocket watch measures 46mm across the dial, and the single-sunk white enamel dial bears black roman numerals in the hour chapter, with hash marks and Arabic numerals in 5-second intervals in the outer ring. The upper and lower dials bears Arabic numerals in 5-second and 10-second intervals, respectively. The hands are blues whips and a spade. The dial is in excellent condition, as is the crystal. Stem wind, pin set. The interior case markings indicate that the watch is 18k gold. The cuvet is engraved "Watch Maker by Warrant/ To the Queen/ Examined By/ J.W. Benson/ 62 & 64 Ludcate Hill/ London/ Swiss Made". The 3/4 plate movement is unmarked. Depressing the crown starts, stops, and resets the chronograph mechanism. A beautiful watch. HKA#64942
