This timepiece was crafted by the skilled hands of Daniel Delander, a British watchmaker who lived from 1678 to 1733. The movement is signed with his name and the location of his workshop, London. The case is marked with the letters EL and other markings that are unfortunately indecipherable. However, a London mark from 1786-87 can be seen on the timepiece. All of these marks are located inside the back of the outer case.
