1918 silver James Wadsworth pocket watch &chain
Antique 1918 silver James Wadsworth pocket watch and albert.
The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.
The watch measures 49mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the two case backs for London (import mark) 1918 with an importer's mark for George Stockwell.
From 1 June 1907, Stockwells acted as assay agents, facilitating the import into Britain of foreign gold and silver items, which had to be assayed and hallmarked in a UK assay office before being released for retail.
The case has a pin-prick size “ding” to the side, and some unevenness to the hinged case back. The back of the watch has the initials GS.
The glass lens is in good condition.
The dial is signed James Wadsworth, Manchester, the original retailer of the watch. The dial is in lovely condition with original hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.
The watch comes with a silver double albert, also hallmarked for 1918... each chain measures 23cm long including the T-bar and the clasp. Each of the links has the lion passant mark.
Also included is a Victorian double florin, also known as the "Barmaid's Grief" due to its similarity to the slightly larger crown coin which had a value of 25% more than the double florin. As neither coin was marked with its denomination and both used an identical portrait of Queen Victoria on the obverse, it was very easy to get the two coins mixed up.
The watch and chain will be sent in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
Please contact us before placing international orders so that we can advise of shipping prices and to see if customs regulations allow us to post watches to your country.

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
