Silver & rose gold Electa half hunter pocket watch


Antique silver and rose gold Electa half hunter pocket watch.
The watch has a good quality Swiss stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement, which has been identified as by Electa, has nicely patterned plates and a Breguet hairspring. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has an inscription, 'Christopher Southward, Dec 10th 1912, from NFD'.
The watch measures 47mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver with a rose gold chapter ring to the front, inset with dark blue enamel filled Roman numerals. There is a small bruise to the side of the watch and a little unevenness to the case back.
The case is hallmarked inside all three covers for London (import mark), 1911 with an importer'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 antique jewellery, silverware, antique clocks and watches, so it was deemed relevant to use his initials.
The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside there is a glass lens which is in lovely condition.
The dial is in very nice condition with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.
The watch comes in an antique presentation box which is showing signs of age and wear but still nice to have.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE.
Please contact us for international shipping prices.
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.
Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable.
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.
