The round case features visible English hallmarks including the lion passant, crowned leopard’s head (London assay office), a monarch’s head duty mark (likely George III or IV), and a date letter resembling ‘Q’ or ‘G’. The dial is heavily tarnished or darkened, with applied gold-toned Roman numerals, centrally mounted hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock, all accented by fine floral engraving. The reverse of the case is engraved with a personalized monogram, likely “WP, ” within a shield-shaped cartouche.
