This chronometer movement by A. P. Walsh is a good example of Walsh's work. Walsh was widely regarded as the best springer and adjuster among the British precision watchmakers in the second half of the 19th century.

This example has lost its case and the dial has some hairlines. Its good features are the raised barrel cover with the nice set up click, jewelling to the center and cap jewels on the escape wheel.
