Condition
Please note that the movement has not been checked for timekeeping accuracy and Sotheby's will not be held responsible for any repairs should they be require.
The movement runs for a short time but then stops, it will require servicing. There are some small indentations and scuffs to the cuvette. There is a small scratch to the enamel dial at 11 o'clock but this is barely visible. The enamel is in good condition. A couple of the seed pearls to the front bezel are crazed but overall the case is in good condition. This is a fine example by this historic maker. Very nice and collectible.

拍品資料及來源
William Ilbery (1760-1839) 專長於為中國市場製作高端貴重鐘錶，其早期設計大多為英式風格，採用全夾板機芯搭配英式單輪雙重擒縱機構，錶殼上色澤細膩的琺瑯均由日內瓦首屈一指的琺瑯大師精心打造。William Ilbery在瑞士工業重鎮Fleurier設立工作室，為亞洲市場製作精美雕刻機芯，其後有許多製錶師如Bovet及Juvet均相繼於該地設廠，故Ilbery可謂是製作中國市場鐘錶最具代表性的人物之一。
