London Date Hallmarks
Jeff Sexton
English hall marks on pocketwatch cases generally consist of three separate symbols, the quality mark, the office mark of the particular assay office, and the year mark indicating the date of the test.
The following are the year marks of the London office, originally researched by F. G. Britten and others.
