A fine gold enamel pocket watch with magnifying glass painting and champlevé dial, made in Switzerland specifically for the discerning Indian market, circa 1860. Crafted from 18 Carat gold, the watch boasts a finely chased full hunting case with enamel magnifier painting on both sides. The front of the case features a stunning portrait of a lady with a headdress and pearl trimmings, while the back showcases a delicate floral motif. The Geneva striping decoration adds an extra touch of elegance to the already stunning design.
