THE MOVEMENT: 100% mint, with gilt three quarter plate and a Bosely regulator, and blue steel screws. A cut two arm bimetallic balance, with hairspring and club tooth lever escapement. The movement overall of good quality and jewelled to the balance staff and through the train with 19 jewels, so very high quality work indeed. Several jewels also set into bouchons and held in place by screws and with 19 jewels. The watch ticking away on my desk as I type this, and keeping very good time for a 120 year old watch. The watch with number 44617, and a Liverpool ebauche.

The watch comes with a period winding key for winding and hands set.  The watch typically for late English work winds in an anti-clock wise direction,  traditionalism till the end. The watch is key-wound, comes with a  watch key and set through the back for winding and via the central square for hands-set through the front. The watch withno button to the side of the case at 2.00, this is missing as is commonly found. The watch is much brighter and  crisp than in these dark photos, which are limited by my camera and lighting equiment.  The watch is in very good working order for its age. 

THE CASE: 100% mint, the solid silver double skinned case measures an impressive 63 mm. The front and rear covers are excellent, both with silver hinges and close nice and tightly. The case with Chester hall-marks and silver sterling marks. The case sponsor mark of "W.G.T." and case number of 44617 and inner dedication to inside rear cover. The case with crisp and sharp engine turning to the case band, and with a shield and garter to centre. The case with a finely ribbed case band in very good order. The solid silver inner dust cuvette, marked for "set hands" to hand-set arbor hole and "wind up" for winding arbor hole. This is a high quality watch, a work of art in its own right in crisp condition and of jewel like quality.
