Edward Wilkins of Newport Isle of Wight hallmarked silver pair cased open faced pocket watch
Sold for £320
+ Buyers Premium

For 200 years or so the pocket watch was the portable timepiece of choice, a must-have fashion accessory for every well-dressed gentleman along with a fob watch for his accompanying lady.
