Rare & Unusual 'Agnes' 0.80 Silver & Copper Cased Pretty Antique Pocket Watch

Really lovely watch, in great condition, working great. Can't find these anymore in this condition, Gold & Silver case with Copper mix in the 80% silver. Please study the photos and video for anything you need to know and research, message if you need any more.... Case Material: You mention the case is "0.8 silver case cuivre". 0.8 Silver (or .800 Silver): This marking denotes the silver fineness, meaning the alloy is 800 parts per 1000 (80%) silver, with the remaining 20% typically being copper or another metal. This fineness was a common standard, especially for Swiss, German, and Continental European pocket watch cases after the late 19th century. Cuivre: This is the French word for copper. This might refer to: The base metal used in the 20% non-silver portion of the .800 silver alloy. A rose gold wash or copper-tone plating on the bow, pendant, and perhaps the bezel (the ring holding the crystal). History and Context "Agnes" as a Brand: "Agnes" does not appear to be a major, well-documented Swiss or American watch manufacturer on the level of brands like Omega, Longines, or Elgin. It is more likely a lesser-known, secondary brand name used by a Swiss établisseur (an assembler of watches using components from various suppliers) or a retailer to brand their product. Many Swiss companies produced watches under a variety of names for different markets or retailers in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Dating (Estimated): Based on the dial style (large Arabic numerals, enamel), the subsidiary seconds, and the common use of the .800 silver standard, this watch most likely dates to the Late 19th Century or Early 20th Century (circa 1890-1920). Geographic Origin: The use of .800 silver and the probable "Agnes" branding points strongly toward a Swiss origin, as Switzerland was the hub for manufacturing and exporting a vast quantity of pocket watches during this period, often cased in .800 silver for European markets (especially Germany).
