BREGUET 18K gold (750) pocket watch, white enamel dial, black railway-track minute track, Roman numeral hour markers in black decals, gilded Louis XV-style hands, small seconds at six o’clock. Hinged case back in 18K gold (750 thousandths) decorated with the engraved initials “RH,” signed “Breguet” on the inside, numbered 624 and 11377; 18K gold (750/1000) dust cover decorated with a miniature painted on enamel depicting a woman in profile, numbered 11377 on the inside. Mechanical movement with manual winding via a pendant, lever escapement. The watch was in working order at the time of appraisal; however, there is no guarantee of future operation or the condition of the parts. Scratches on the case, scratches on the crystal, some marks on the dial; the portrait was likely added at a later date. According to the Breguet archives, its serial number corresponds to “624: 20-ligne watch with crown winding, gold case no. 11377, enamel dial with small seconds hand, Louis XV hands, lever escapement. Sold on May 23, 1892, to Dr. Ledan for 760 francs.” I would like to personally thank Emmanuel Breguet for his consistently invaluable information. Circa 1890 Weight: 115 gr Diameter: 5 cm Appraised by Nicolas AMSELLEM
