Notes Note: This watch is remarkable in that not only does it have jewelled holes and endstones for the verge pivots but also jewelled holes and endstones in the potence and counter-potence. Daniel Quare was the first in England to have his watches with winding square passing through the dial. In order to avoid opening the watches to be set-up, the regulator was in the front as well with an aperture in the dial for the regulator disc. Previously in the S.E. Prestige Collection, this watch was sold by Sotheby's in London on 29 April 1968, Lot no. 14, p. 12.
