Antique silver Louis-Ulysse Chopard Prima pocket watch.

Chopard was born in 1836 in Sonvilier, Switzerland. His father encouraged him to learn the trade of watch making and in 1860, aged just 24, he started his own company, LUC. The company specialised in watches of excellent quality and the company had an enviable list of distinguished customers including Czar Nicolas II of Russia.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The gilt movement is signed with the LUC initials and it has the tadpole style micro regulator.

The movement is protected by an inner cover which is signed, has details of the movement and also of various medals won at worldwide exhibitions in the late 1800s.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is 800 silver with a rose gold wash around the bezel and the edge of the case back although most has rubbed off the case back now. Vacant cartouche to the back of the watch.

The acrylic lens is in good condition.

The signed dial has Breguet style hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer 24 hour numbers. There has been some damage at number 10 and a hairline running towards the centre. There are also some nibbles to the perimeter of the dial but they are hidden by the bezel.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund.
