empressissi™ is pleased to offer this all original and in excellent condition, large, heavy and impressive 18K solid rose gold John Rotherham & Sons pocket watch from 1882.This watch is part of a large and mostly impressive, museum level collection of a retired IAF pilot that we are delighted to offer for sale in our website. In 2016 we serviced a small portion of his collection that was later auctioned at Christie's Geneve. We are now pleased to offer the substantial part of the collection for sale; these include repeaters, chronographs, Hunter-cases (Savonettes) and open faces, most complex and interesting antique Swiss and American pocket watches of the finest standards. The watch houses a large classic JR English pinset gilt caliber in overall excellent condition and running properly. This is not a chronograph in the classic definition of independent time measurement but rather a stop watch which functions through a sliding lever outside the case and stop/starts the whole movem
