"New" 1803.

After meeting with a Gent at the watchmaker (Verify Authenticity ). I am the proud new owner of another 1803...


Oh and it came with a ring!!




Overall nice piece a bit of wear and tear but the owner sold it at a very good price!!

Very very nice.

Not normally my cup-of-tea, but I really like that.

Does the ring have any relevance?

Hi there, the gent who sold the watch has had the ring for as long as he has had the watch. He told me they belong together and as such insisited I buy both.

-Cheers.

That's cool.

Just thought I'd ask. Nice story to go with the watch in later years.

Dear Keeper,

You have to post some pictures of the ring.

It was a time that they were selling them along with the watches, and if it is so, the ring body immitates the president bracelet links and the "crown" is like the fluted bezel.

This is why the seller said they go together.

So, please make some clear pictures of the ring to verify the fact.

And BTW, CONGRATS
