	GLASHUTTE 14 KARAT SOLID GOLD HUNTER CASE AND PRESENTATION BOX FULLY SERVICED STOCK NUMBER # GLASHUTTE100------First of all I want to point out the cover to the dial does not open properly and I have adjusted the price accordingly so not to worry. This is a rare bird indeed from the Glashutte factories in Germany near Saxony. The case is signed and hallmarked and I have tested this case and indeed it is solid 14 karat gold. The case across is 58mm and slim enough to fit into a pants pocket as it is a 16 size piece.  The case serial number is 99595. This case is thick not flimy so indeed there is much gold in this case. The movement is a 16 size by American standards and it is a stem wind and lever set at the 4 position. The dial is enamel and excellent as well the hands are gold filigree in design and original to this Glashutte piece. There are 15 clean and inspected ruby jewels and once again each piece has been inspected and cleaned. The year of production of this Glashutte piece is aprox 1885 and runs like day one so please be assured of this fact. The presentation box is clean and tells the story of who sold this piece and it was the famous stores of H Kreitz. Glashutte is a small town of about 4,700 residents near Saxony, Germany.  The town’s name means “tin mine” or “silver mine” and has been a watch town since 1845, when Ferdinand Lange established a teaching workshop for watchmakers. Lange received state funding to set up this school in order to open new employment opportunities for young men in this depressed area.  After completing their training, the watchmakers remained in Glashutte to work on specializations and before long, a business had developed.  By 1900, every other home had a watchmaker’s workshop for parts such as gears, springs, cases, etc.  The quality of these parts equaled that of the Swiss watchmakers.  However, after World War II, Glashutte found itself behind the Iron Curtain under Soviet power.  This power created a state-formed conglomerate by coalescing factories and suppliers, and for 40 years Glashutte Watch Enterprises toiled under often extreme conditions to meet the demands of the state and population.  Glashutte Original Watch Company lost its identity in the wake of the war and post-war Germany. However, with the reunification of Germany in 1990, the Soviet’s conglomeration was broken and Glashutte was one of the watch companies able to re-establish its traditions and preserve and promote its location.  Glashutte’s reputation for hand-crafted attention to detail, uniqueness, and character in each watch it produces once again flourished. In 1995, Glashutte celebrated 150 years of masterpiece watch making by producing the Julius Assmann 1, featuring a perpetual calendar and a flying tourbillion, which could be worn as a pocket or wristwatch. Even today, Glashutte’s factory is impressive.  The machinery used is a combination of old and high-tech.  Many of the machines are from the communist era, particularly the ones that make the tiny screws and pinions.  These machines were considered the best that Switzerland had to offer at the time and have continued to provide high quality products for these world-famous watches. Every component of a Glashutte watch is made in their own factory and each watch is hand crafted to perfection.  While they are extremely costly to purchase, they are exquisite pieces of art that will perform perfectly for years.     3700.00 USD VERIFIED PAYPAL ONLY NO EXCEPTIONS AT ALL OR WIRE TRANSFER PLEASE
	WALTHAM APPLETON TRACEY 14 KARAT PRISTINE HUNTER CASE POCKET WATCH STOCK NUMBER # WALTHAM440------This is the best you will find for all over condition. Please keep in mind this exquisite piece is from the year 1887(120 years old). I assure you this case and movement are mint condition the best I have seen in many many years. The dial has one small spider line at the 11 pm market to the middle. The Emerald colored markers per hour might actually be stones as they are faceted but I cannot get to them as they are (if they are real stones) in the enamel orignal Waltham multi colored dial. This solid gold 14 karat hunter case is aprox 55 grams of solid pure 14 karat and it has been tested. The case was produced by the A.W.C.Co company and the serial number is 15,693 and both covers and the cuvette share the same serial number. The case across is 55mm. there are no personal engravings on this case and again not a ding not a scratch purely perfect indeed. The movement is a model 1883 with 15 jewels it jewel settings that are pressed in. The serial number for this 18 size stem wind and lever set model is 3,624,204. The year of production for this Appleton Tracy model hunter movement is 1887 and this was part of a 500 piece run so 120 years later? who knows how many survived and I can attest to the fact that being in an 18 or 14 karat gold hunter case is very scarce and to find one in museum quality perfect condition? almost one of a kind. the price has been set according to rarity and for the solid gold content which when put together is the best you will do or investment as the bank will NEVER be able to match the return you will get on this piece in a short 8 years or so! 2500.00 USD VERIFIED PAYPAL ONLY NO EXCEPTIONS AT ALL OR WIRE TRANSFER PLEASE

	ROBERT ROSKELL RACK AND PINION 18 KARAT GOLD CASE IN CASE     STOCK NUMBER ROSKELL1000------ In the year 1825 Jan 27th - U.S. Congress approves Indian Territory (in what is present-day Oklahoma), clearing the way for forced relocation of the Eastern Indians on the "Trail of Tears." Mar 4th - John Quincy Adams inaugurated as 6th president and in Liverpool a master watchmaker was producing stunning rack and lever chain fusee pocket watch as this fine example and well worthy to be in the same paragraph as J Adams and the birth of the state Oklahoma. I must tell you that an 18 karat solid gold case in case are rare and hard to find and to have a fine pristine example in such fine high museum quality? this is unheard of. One must keep in mind that back in 1825 computers were not even on the table of thought, Electricity was only 50 odd years old by a kite flown in an electrical storm  by Ben Franklin. The telephone was the "town Crier" and still Robert Roskell managed to slowly produced some of the worlds finest time pieces as this one I have here before you without the aid or marvels of machines and man made lighting.  The case in case are both spotless and well hallmarked from the assay's office of Chester and dated to 1825. The total weight of the cases not including movement, bulls eye glass crystal or metal bars is 65 grams which works out to a bit less than 2  1/2 ounces of pure 18 karat solid gold. The outer case across is 55mm. The inner solid 18 karat gold case is 50mm across. The dial is enamel and for a dial of an age of 183 years old it is stunning along with the solid 24 karat gold hands. The movement is a chain fusee and it has a "Rack and lever" movement as Robert Roskell was famous for. all hinges on these two cases are in perfect order. The movement is signed Robert Roskell and it is written on the movement "Liverpool,23,888. On the balance cock it is written "Patent" It is truly amazing that when you put the key into the key slot and wind it a few times, This 183 year old movement runs amazingly well. I have cleaned and serviced this piece and I can tell you that it came to me in well taken care of condition so with a little TLC and with close inspection of all gears, cogs and the fusee chain. I can attest to this historical piece as a genuine 18 karat gold case in case Museum piece in perfect order. The price has been set by rarity and condition as well as the karat gold of these cases.
