English cased two-day marine chronometer, Henry Appleton, London, 19th c., housed in a mahogany case with brass side handles, retaining inlaid medallion with engraved maker's mark numbered 430, hinged lid revealing silver-tone metal dial with Roman and Arabic numerals marked Henry Appleton, 50 Myddleton Sq., London, also with subsidiary seconds and blue-toned hands, set within a gimbaled brass bowl, approx 6.75"h, 6.5"w, 6.25"d, 6lbs **Provenance: The collection of Kathryn V. Alexander, an antiques dealer and designer with over 20 years of experience operating shops in New Orleans, Louisiana, and Middleburg, Virginia. Kathryn retired in 2020 and now lives in Georgetown, Texas**

CR 1.13.26 - In my opinion regarding LOT: 3012- the box is in sturdy and stable condition and securely housing the fitting at this time, metal mounts shows some surface wear, and abrasions, the inlaid medallion at front case is with a stable crack and there is a wood loss above it, see images, handles are securely attached, the case further exhibits typical wood wear, interior fitting is present, the dial does show some surface wear, when the key is wound, it just turns, so it appears that the spring is broken, however I am not an expert and we did not open the back
