Dennison Watch Case Co. gold-filled case. The case is stamped with the Moon Trademark and carries full English manufacture markings, reading “English make, guaranteed to be made of two plates of 10 karat gold with a plate of composition between, and to wear 20 years,” along with serial markings and “10F,” confirming its quality construction and era-correct production standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1184\" data-end=\"1617\"\u003eThe watch is a full hunter design with a quarter-turn opening system, where the dial is oriented with the 12 o’clock position rotated to the side for proper viewing when opened. The dial layout includes a clean sub-seconds register positioned at six o’clock, providing classic symmetry and traditional early 20th-century styling. The movement is Swiss made, unsigned by a visible manufacturer, but performs strongly and consistently.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1619\" data-end=\"1831\"\u003eThis is a triple-closure system watch consisting of the front protective hunter cover, the inner rear movement cover, and the outer rear movement cover, giving it excellent protection and a substantial feel in hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1833\" data-end=\"2243\"\u003eThe watch is in excellent running condition and has been tested on a timegrapher with strong and stable results.
