Fine and scarce English Yates Slow Beat 18K gold antique pocket watch
made for the American market circa 1850.
The handsome movement with visibly slow beating escapement and giant
Liverpool windows" jewels in screwed settings, the balance cock chased and engraved with
an American eagle. With dust cover cut out to show off the cock.
Heavy engine turned case stamped with the name of the casemaker or retailer and
with an American eagle hallmark.
An interesting and handsome watch in particularly fine condition.
