I found this and I have no idea what it is. Maybe a Fusee? I don't know. I want to sell it on Ebay or here if someone wants it but I want to make sure this is not some valuable rare movement. I don't think so but it never hurts to ask before I sell it. Thanks. P.S. I can't read the big fancy writing. The last part is "pool" but I can't figure out the first part. | ||

I can not see an extra barrel. Or a chain. so to me the photos show it as a lever escapement pocket watch. If some one can prove me wrong please do so. Liverpool | |||

I do not see a crown wheel. So It can not be a verge. ![]() | |||

It is a British 1850's vintage Fusee driven under hair sprung movment with solid gold balance wheel and a Pinned Plate construction. All the naming and citys etc. as engraved on the plate apply. The Dial, Hands, middle and hour wheels, setting arbor and Fusee Chain are missing. | |||

It does say Williams and Appleton N0. 18521 I have not would it but if you twist it a little it will start ticking and the balance wheels starts spinning for 30 seconds or so. | |||

So basically this is a parts watch? So does anyone need a parts watch? If so let me know and I'll mail it to you. Thanks everyone. | |||

Hello Deacon, If no one hear wants it I will. I had rather give it to a IHC185 member that needs or wants it. If no one wants it I will put it on Ebay. If you want it for your granddaughters project let me know and it's yours. Not to pretty though with the brass color. | |||
