Description
Believed to be of French origin around 1800, family owned from a grandfather who was a sailing boat (tea clipper) captain in the 19th century out of Dover, England. I’ve tried inspecting and researching this, but not found anything very similar. Believe it is open face, key wound, verge escapement, spade hands, maybe 3 colour gold case, possibly gold but can’t see a recognisable hallmark.
