A rare, remarkably fine and sophisticated pocket watch in excellent condition. For this Joseph used a movement from the famous Vacheron & Constantin Chronometre Royal series. Charles Joseph (1852-1935) was a watchmaker to the observatories of Paris and Meudon; only very few of his pieces have survived until today.
Signed: Charles Joseph Paris
