A base metal open face pocket watch by John Ward. The front wind fusee and chain movement is currently functioning although it is filthy and may benefit from a service. The dial possesses several cracks, most noticeably near the three and four o'clock positions and there is significant damage around the winding aperture to the front. The hands are blemished and dirty. The case is tarnished, scratched and has a few light dints from general wear. The bow is loose.
