Superb Hallmarked Silver Pocket Watch.

A silver verge style silver pocket watch, with an English lever movement by J Rowlett & Co of Kings Lynn, Norfolk. It is clearly hallmarked for London 1926. It has a plain dial with roman numerals and a second hand and dial. Typically of this period, it has a Perspex crystal, this has started to yellow slightly.
It is a key wind from under the back cover and the hands are changed by moving them with the key from the front. It has just come back from being cleaned and serviced, so it is running very well and keeping good time.
This is a really nice watch, you don’t find many English lever movements at this date, most watch makers were buying in Swiss movements by this time, this shows the high quality of this watch.
The case is also in very good condition, it shows a little wear to the back of the case, probably where it has sat in someone’s pocket pocket for years. It comes with its original Key.
