Roy King hand Wound Wristwatch –
Solid Sterling Silver, gold plated

Roy king was a leading
British watch designer and jeweller, with customers ranging from Saudi
princes to The Beatles and Tom Jones. Roy King began his career at the age
of 14 as an apprentice goldsmith and diamond mounter in Hatton Garden. By
21 he was foreman of a workshop, creating one-off pieces which readily
found buyers (including members of the Royal Family) through Bond Street
jewellers. Much of his work in the 1930s was also as an uncredited
manufacturer for names such as Rolex, Cartier, Asprey and Garrard. After
the war, King began to design and make watches under his own name. In
1961, the Roy King workshop swept the board at the British Modern
Jewellery Exhibition, winning two first prizes, as well as one second and
one third prize. The winning pieces are now in the permanent collection of
Goldsmiths' Hall. During the 1960s, the workshop produced many designs
using a variety of unconventional methods to satisfy the most avant garde
tastes. King's "bark finish" design for bracelets sparked a
craze: when George Harrison married Patti Boyd in 1966, she wore one of
King's bark finish wedding bands. This one is made circa 1974 when he
started making watches in sterling silver. It is a solid watch with a good
heavy and solid case made from 925 solid sterling silver which is then
gold plated. It is heavy in weight and the watch weighs a total of 44
