Antique pocket watch from H White & Co, London
An antique pocket watch from H White & Co, London.
The watch has a stem-winding ¾ plate movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed with the name H White & Co, 63 Cheapside London, and it is all protected by an inner hinged cover.
Harry White was listed as being both a watch and chronometer maker. In 1899, following an Extraordinary General Meeting, it was agreed that the company would be wound up and Harry White was appointed liquidator.
However, it seems the company were trading in the 1910s because in 1913, records exist where H White & Co were one of several companies supplying chronometers for time trials at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, with a view to supplying chronometers for the Board of Admiralty.
The watch itself measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is 14ct gold plated and was originally guaranteed for 20 years. The case has some unevenness to the back, and some surface marks, but overall acceptable for a piece from the 1910s.
The watch glass has light marks.
The signed dial is in lovely condition with pin-set blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.
The watch 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.
The international buyer is responsible for paying any import duties and taxes.
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.
We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.
Credit / debit card purchases can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the \'Buy Securely\' button on each listing page.
We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.
With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
