This watch movement by Charles Cabrier, a London-based watchmaker, dates from 1735 - 1765. The watch face, crafted with a dark blue enamel background and gold detailing, showcases Roman numerals for hour markers and a delicate gold hand. The inscription "CABRIER LONDON" is visible at the center of the face, indicating the maker and location of its origin. This piece reflects the craftsmanship and precision of 18th-century watchmaking in London.
