The hands are on the square

Well...not quite on the square. This splendid-looking timepiece is for sale on eBay.

It is listed as a silver, full hunter watch with the case maker's mark as J.H.E. and hallmarked to Chester in 1860.

It has been serviced and loses just three minutes a day. Not too bad after 140 years.

It measures 51mm across and weighs in at 118 grams.



The sale ends on Sunday.
