WOW!!! THIS IS SOUTH AFRICAN HISTORY AT IT'S BEST!!! AN EXQUISITE ANTIQUE "ALFRED RIDLEY OF QUEENSTOWN, SOUTH AFRICA" POCKET WATCH DATING AS FAR BACK AS 1882... THE INFO I COULD FIND IS THAT ALFRED RIDLEY WAS A LONDON BASED WATCHMAKER AND CAME OVER TO SA AROUND 1873 AND LIVED IN QUEENSTOWN, SOUTH AFRICA!!! I BELIEVE HE ALSO SERVED AS AN OFFICER IN THE QUEENSTOWN RIFLE VOLUNTEERS DURING THE ANGLO-BOER WAR!!! PLEASE DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH TO GET THE FULL STORY. FANTASTIC HISTORY!!!!

THE POCKET WATCH IS IN GREAT CONDITION FOR THE AGE EXCEPT FOR THE GLASS THAT'S MISSING!!! IT STILL WORKS INTERMITTANTLY BUT WOULD OBVIOUSLY REQUIRE A GOOD SERVICE. THIS WATCH IS EXACTLY AS WE FOUND IT AND HAS NOT EVEN BEEN CLEANED... PLEASE VIEW THE PICS VERY CAREFULLY FOR MORE DETAIL AND THE CONDITION AS THIS FORMS PART OF THE DESCRIPTION. WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET! STANDARD POSTAGE AND PACKAGING WILL BE R50.00 COUNTER TO COUNTER OR PLEASE COLLECT IN EDENVALE FREE OF CHARGE!
