Antique silver pocket watch, Oddfellows, 1918
1 of 6
Antique silver pocket watch, Oddfellows, 1918.
The watch has a Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely.
The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has an inscription, ‘Presented by loyal city of Canterbury Lodge 3743, to Bro W A Joad Prov G M, Canterbury District, M U Oddfellows, 1941, for his services to Oddfellowship’.
The watch measures 49mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside both of the case backs for London 1918 with a sponsor’s mark for Arthur Rendell. In 1907, an act came into force which meant that all imported watches had to be assayed in a UK assay office and marked with British import hallmarks. For this, a sponsor's mark was required. In this particular case, Arthur Rendell was an employee, and probably in charge, of the department that handled imported watches at a company called Pringles, the UK's largest wholesalers of jewellery, silverware, clocks and watches, so it was deemed relevant to use his initials.
The watch was already 23 years old when it was awarded, perhaps second hand was a more economical as the watch was presented in the middle of the second World War.
Overall, the case is in good condition, just an indentation to the back where it has been pushed shut.
The glass lens has a couple of short scratches, not too detrimental at all.
The dial is in lovely condition with blued steel hands.
The watch comes 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.
