Horloge 1784

"Horloge" is a 1784 pocket watch by John Turner, an English watchmaker whose career was tragically cut short by his early death in 1786. This small, silver pocket watch with an intricately designed case is an excellent example of the craftsmanship of the late 18th century. The watch features a white enamel dial with Roman numerals and black markers, and is accompanied by a brass winding key. The watch face measures just over 4 cm in diameter, showcasing Turner’s meticulous skill in creating diminutive yet functional timepieces.
