Description: | Watch in an open- face silver case.
Inscription. AQN: Foulkes, R K (owner). Inscription on movement:"Veyrin/Hger.de Mgr. le Duc d'Orleans". On dial:"VEYRIN". Poincons inside case include crowned 'O' (Paris 1777), case maker '*NAD', and Paris mark for small objects 1775-1781. Large 8-day silver pocket watch. Full-plate movement, verge escapement. Train with intermediate wheel between centre and fusee. Stop-work mounted on pillar-plate under dial. Convex enamel dial with arabic numerals for hours and 15 minutes. Decorated gold hands. Dial has been carefully restored in several areas, including winding hole at 4.
This item is highlighted for disposal on Jonathan Betts' December 1994 document 'The Foulkes Collection: Preliminary list for keep/dispose' which appears on T1993/054 pt. I. However as yet we have not found definitive evidence of the item leaving the Museum and I suspect this is a duplicate record for ZAA0694 (Stephen Goddard, 2014-04-30) | Publisher: | "http://collections.rmg.co.uk/" | Subjects: | pocket watches | Source: | Royal Museums Greenwich | Identifier: | http://collections.rmg.co.uk/collections... | Go to resource |
