Fine and very scarce Japanese inro verge and gut fusee antique watch with moveable
hour markers circa 1850.
Silvered polished and engraved case. Brass movement with large beautifully pierced
and engraved cock with the foot also pierced and engraved.
Gilt dial with single blued steel hands and silver moveable hour markers.
Excellent example.
Japanese watchmakers continued to make old style movements long after
technological improvements were being employed by western watchmakers.
