Silver lever pocket watch
–
A decorative pocket watch in a hunting cased, circa 1910. A silver case, applied monogram, enamel dial, divided 2/3 plate movement, screw compensation balance.
The magnificently executed coat of arms of the Russian Empire with offset blue ribbons and additional anchor and axe, set on a case with exquisite engine turned pattern, recalls the grand days of the Russian Navy or more likely, the Russian Railway? The small town of Bologoje is far from the sea but has been a hub for the St Petersburg-Moscow railway since the mid 19th century.
The engraving dedicates the piece to “The driver (or engineer) 1st grade at the Bologoje depot, Michail Fedorovič Šekurov, for his long service” (translated by Johannes Woda).
