EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent gold pair-cased cylinder watch with a quarter repeat, dating back to 1744. Crafted by the skilled hands of George Graham, George Michael Moser, and John Ward, this timepiece is now housed in the Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford. The outer case of this exquisite pocket watch features an intricate central whorled rosette design, flanked by two panels of scrolled foliage symmetrically surrounding a mask. The brickwork around the bow adds an elegant touch to its overall appearance. The white enamelled dial with Arabic numerals perfectly complements the opulent gold case. Measuring at 48.3 mm in diameter and 22 mm in thickness for the outer case, and 41 mm in diameter and 27.1 mm in thickness for the inner case, this watch boasts impressive dimensions. Its movement measures at 29.4 mm in diameter while standing tall on baluster pillars that support a dust cap. With its openwork detailing and engraved foliate patterns, this Georgian-era timepiece exudes timeless charm and sophistication. A true masterpiece of Western artistry, it combines form and function seamlessly. As you admire this photograph print from Fine Art Finder, take note of its refined elegance - from its Roman numerals to its delicate craftsmanship - reminding us all of the enduring beauty found within antique timepieces like these.
