1910s British antique Russell pocket watch in gold-plated hunter case, in good working order

We would like to introduce you to a pocket watch from the British watch manufacturer Russell.

It dates from around the 1910s, with a Swiss-made movement and an American-made gold-plated case.
The dial and movement are engraved with a wheel with Mercury's feather shoe and "TEMPUS FUGIT".
"TEMPUS FUGIT" means "time flies" in Latin.
It is unknown if it has been overhauled, but the balance wheel is in good condition and ticks along smoothly.

I hope this "once in a lifetime" encounter will be a special one!
