Elegant English Victorian pocket watch, signed on the dial E. Perfitt, Wymondham, Norfolk.
The sterling silver case bears London hallmarks dated 1874, confirming its authenticity and provenance.
The movement, of the verge escapement type, is gilded and finely hand-engraved, an expression of mid-19th century craftsmanship. The white enamel dial features black Roman numerals and a sub-dial at 6 o'clock, with blued steel hands.
It represents an interesting example of traditional English watchmaking, combining refined aesthetics with historical mechanics.
