Herenhorloge van zilver met dubbele onversierde kast c. 1400 - 1950

This silver pocket watch, crafted by J. Wilders, is a fine example of Dutch horological artistry from the 15th to 19th centuries. The watch's enameled face features a delicate scene of figures in a landscape, possibly depicting a royal procession, along with the inscription "Willem de Vijfde Prins van Oranje." Its compact size, measuring just 4 cm in diameter, made it a fashionable accessory for individuals of the era, and its intricate details demonstrate the skill of the watchmaker. The piece serves as a reminder of the historical and aesthetic significance of early pocket watches as both timekeeping devices and objects of beauty.
