Lunds. A Silver Patent Winding Up
Down Fusee, Free Sprung Open Face Pocket Watch. C1870
Dial: The white enamel dial with Roman numerals, outer minute track signed Barraud
Lunds Cornhill London and numbered. The power reserve subsidiary dial at twelve o'clock with the subsidiary seconds at six o'clock. The blued steel spade hands with blued steel power reserve hand and blued steel seconds hand. The dial is covered by a mineral glass.
Case: The heavy gauge silver case with English hallmarks for 1936 made by Albert Thomas Oliver a famous English casemaker. The back of the case is plain. The inner case has holes to wind the watch and to set the hands.
Movement: The super gilt metal three quarter plate chain driven movement fully signed Barraud
Lunds 41 Cornhill London and numbered, with raised and engraved going barrel, fully jewelled with compensation balance, blued steel hair spring being free sprung. The watch works beautifully.
This is an important and rare pocket watch where the watch was wound by the crown being pulled from the stem, which has a built in key with female winding. This was the forerunner to pocket watches being completely keyless. The Patent was taken out in March 1870. Unfortunately it proved not to be a success so movements were left and not cased up. Fortunately Albert Oliver made a case for this movement in 1936, to bring back to life such an important and rare watch. This museum piece would make a fine addition to ones collection.
