EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite craftsmanship of a George III mean and sidereal pocket chronometer with Z balance, No. 2. Created by renowned clockmaker John Arnold in the late 18th century, this metal and enamel timepiece is a true testament to his skill and artistry. The ornate face of the pocket watch features an intricately engraved dial, adorned with silver accents that add a touch of elegance to its overall design. The brass clockwork mechanism, visible through the open back, reveals the intricate gears and cogs that power this remarkable chronometer. Measuring just 6 cm in diameter, this Georgian masterpiece is not only functional but also serves as a decorative accessory fit for any discerning collector. Its closed case ensures protection while showcasing its stunning decoration when not in use. With its Z balance system, this pocket watch offers unparalleled accuracy in both mean solar timekeeping and sidereal time measurement – making it an invaluable tool for astronomers during George III's reign. Now part of a private collection, this exceptional piece captures the essence of British horological excellence from centuries past. A true treasure for enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike, it stands as a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship that defined an era long gone by.
