My old timer is a 18ct Gold Pocket Watch – With a maker’s mark CL - is hallmarked [t] for 1893
It has a Key wound Fusee mechanism and is in good working order
This is my special dress watch and although I only use it on high days and holidays with a short careful wind up it keeps time beautifully

Re: My Old Timer
Very smart.
The wooden hanging bracket almost makes it into a carriage clock.

Re: My Old Timer
That is a stunning looking pocket watch and seems to be in great condition . I am not surprised it is your special dress watch
