Antique silver H Samuel pocket watch, 1895.
Antique silver H Samuel pocket watch, 1895.
The watch has a key wound movement by the Lancashire Watch Company which is working nicely. The movement would have been bought in to be cased and prepared for onward retail by H Samuel, and in fact the movement is signed with their name. The movement is protected by an inner fitted cover.
Harriet Samuel took over her father-in-law's clock-making business in 1862 in Liverpool, she renamed the business H Samuel and moved the business to Manchester's Market Street where she ran the company as a mail order business.
Later on, Harriet’s son concentrated on the retail side of the business, and the first H Samuel retail store opened in Preston in 1890, closely followed by branches in Rochdale and throughout Lancashire. Since then the company has become nationwide with branches in many British High Streets today.
The watch measures 51.5mm diameter excluding the stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the two back covers for Chester 1895 with a case maker's mark for H Samuel. The case has light surface marking from use and some wear to the engine turned detail although it is in nice condition for an 1890s piece.
The acrylic lens is in lovely condition.
The off-white dial is signed H Samuel, Manchester. The dial has slight discolouring and a couple of very faint hairline cracks under the sub seconds dial but overall it is in nice condition for an 1890s piece.
The watch has gold hands and a blued steel sub seconds hand.
The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE.

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. 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.

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.
