Cartier

• gilt manual winding jewelled lever movement, bi-metallic compensation balance • silvered engine turned dial signed Cartier Paris Londres, Arabic numerals • the centre of the case back with pink translucent enamel over engine turning and centred with a brilliant cut diamond, itself surrounded by small diamond chips, the edges with white enamel heightened with translucent green enamel swags over engine turning, the front bezel similarly decorated and with diamond set inner bezel, diamond set crown • pendant chain with circular brooch set with diamonds, two short chains joining to the watch case each comprising 4 pearls and a pink engine turned cylinder • case with Cartier numbers, dial signed

Movement not running, will require service and overhaul. Dial tarnished with age and some slight wear to the numerals. The case and chain are both very pretty and although they have some small scratches from wear, they are in attractive condition for the age of the piece. The chain pendant most probably was attached to a brooch pin which is now lacking. There is one very small diamond chip missing to the setting below the central case back diamond but this is hardly noticeable.
