Pocket watch is held by Montanhistorisches Dokumentationszentrum. Museum description: Half-hunter pocket watch with case, fluted crown (crown-winding) and pendant with round bow for attaching a watch chain at position 12.
On the side of the case at position 1 there is also the hand-setting push-piece. The watch glass is set into a lid with bezel. Under the watch glass lies a white enamel dial with Roman numerals and an auxiliary seconds dial ("small seconds") at position 6. Due to the inclusion of the auxiliary dial, the numerals 5, 6, and 7 are not completely depicted. The hinged back cover with opening lip is decorated on the exterior with a round cartouche.
The inside of the cover is marked "1770". The movement is protected by a dust cover (cuvette), on the back of which the number sequence is repeated. Setting the hands is done via the crown while using a fingernail on a small pin at The museum record gives measurements height: 14 mm; length: 68 mm; diameter: 49 mm (length measured with bow). These details come from the holding museum's own record; how far this object represents a wider collectible type has not yet been independently verified.
