This exquisite timepiece is a remarkable Swiss chronograph from the late 19th century. It features a unique English silver open face case, adding to its allure. The keywind movement showcases a luxurious gilt three quarter plate design with a going barrel, providing exceptional precision. Its engraved cock and polished steel regulator demonstrate the craftsmanship and attention to detail put into this timepiece. The compensation balance with a blue steel overcoil hairspring ensures accurate timekeeping. The white enamel dial boasts Roman numerals, a centre seconds hand in blue steel, and elegant gilt hands, adding a touch of sophistication. The large English plain silver open face case includes a slide in the band for convenience, allowing you to stop the watch when needed. The plain back features a vacant oval cartouche, accompanied by a silver cuvette that enables winding and setting. Look out for the maker's mark, "LJ," displayed in a rectangle. This exquisite Swiss chronograph encapsulates both timeless elegance and unrivaled precision.
