專家說明
The present watch is a fine example of a timepiece made by the renowned watchmaker Charles Henri (or Henry) Meylan for the North American market. Originating from the Vallée de Joux in Switzerland Meylan founded his own company in Le Brassus in 1878 but lived in New York for a number of years. He held various American patents for his watches which were imported into the US by Mathey Bros., Mathez & Co., New York, and which were also supplied to Waltham Watch Co.
