Jules Jorgensen, Copenhagen and Switzerland, No. 15176, made in 1894. Very fine and rare "ingoldage" (chromium plated) deck watch, in mahogany fitted deck box. Three piece " bassine et filet", polished with glazed back. Silvered with Roman numerals, outer minute ring and sunk subsidiary seconds. Blued steel "pear" hands. Notes This watch and two others with successive numbers were special orders and delivered only in chromium plated display cases to be used as fleck watches. The ten adjusuueuts, as specified on the movement, arc another most unusual technical feature, the best quality watches being usually adjusted only for heat and cold isochronism and li positions (eight adjustments).
