This is a large, impressive, good quality repeating French pocket watch, with a cylinder movement in a rose gold case.

MOVEMENT Nice quality, gilded cylinder movement with engraved balance cock. The hour/quarter repeating function is activated by pushing down the stem. The repeater strikes two gongs, with one chime for the hours and two for the quarters. The movement is in good original condition and both watch and repeating functions are working well. There is a slide on the band of the case which disables the repeat.

DIAL The white enamel dial has a tiny chip on the edge at 3, some light surface scratches and a tiny chip at the winding hole, but generally very good. Unusual blued steel serpentine hands. The mineral crystal is good other than a few short light scratches.

CASE The rose gold case weighs 117 gms (including the movement). It is stamped with a maker's mark HL.B on the inside of the back and a French gold mark on the crown.
All hinges and catches are fine and both covers (and bezel) snap closed nicely.
The case is in good condition with no repairs and just one very light bruise on the lower edge of the back. Free worldwide postage.
Payments by cheque, bank transfer, credit & debit cards and Paypal accepted.
