The full plate, English Lever Fusee movement is in very good, clean condition and excellent working order. It is fully signed by the maker "George Dunn, Clerkenwell, London" and has the serial number 25317 to match the case proving both are original and have been together since new. It is nicely finished with a decoratively engraved balance cock, all signs of a good quality watch.

The solid sterling silver case is in excellent condition. It has engine turned engraving to both front and rear, the front with a circular central cartouche that is free of initials. It is hallmarked with the case maker's initials "GJT" for George James Thickbroom (casemaker), the Lion Passant sterling silver mark, the Leopard's Head London town mark and date letter "G" for 1882/83.
Adding interest to the watch there is a nice presentation engraving to the inner cuvette
"Presented to Harry Smith by his Father Nov'r 3rd 1883".
A lovely example of a Victorian Fusee Pocket Watch.
The watch measures 48mm in diameter. The weight is 112.5g
