Fine Swiss 14K gold carilion chiming grande sonnerie quarter repeating clockwatch circa 1900.
Fine white enamel dial with black markings and blued steel hands. Substantial plain polish case with
medals on the dust cover, repeat button in the band, and strike/silent lever at the edge of the
dial. Fine gilt Zenith estimated 30 jewel movement.
With the selection lever in the sonnerie (or strike) position this watch automatically
chimes the hours and quarters every 15 minutes, with 3 chimes for each quarter.
This means that 1:15 has a different chime than 2:15. When the button in the band is
depressed, this watch chimes the hours and quarters with a lovely chime,
