Antique 18K-Gold Verge-Fusee Pocket Watch. C. 1810, Geneva, Switzerland

This beautiful and antique pocket watch with a verge escapement, signed by JR Mauris on the dial, a watchmaker in Geneva, Switzerland, circa 1810, is a gem for classic watch collectors. Made of 18K gold, its quality has been certified through an acid test conducted by a professional, and a written guarantee of the authenticity of the precious metal is included.

The white porcelain dial is hand-painted with a delicate romantic scene depicting a woman resting in a rural setting, accompanied by a small animal, possibly a dog. This exquisitely painted scene adds an artistic touch to the watch, capturing the essence of the Romanticism of the period. The black enamel Arabic numerals, combined with the ‘fassonzeiger’ style hands, bring elegance that complements the watch’s classic style.

On the back, the watch’s movement is in excellent condition, showcasing the craftsmanship of the era. This watch, which also includes its original key for winding, is a fine example of early 19th-century Swiss horology, when precision and artistic design went hand in hand. Although the dial may be a later replacement, it does not affect the watch’s aesthetic value or flawless functioning.

This antique 18K gold pocket watch is an ideal piece for both passionate watch collectors and those wishing to add a touch of history and elegance to their collection. It would look perfect displayed in a showcase or as part of a set of period timepieces.

Don’t miss the opportunity to acquire this unique piece, which combines functionality and artistic beauty with the guarantee of exceptional quality!
