Clocks, Watches & Scientific Instruments Auction in Boston

Mods,
the first 10 pages of lots for this auction do contain antique firearms so if this is a no no please delete and you have my apologies, but I thought since they are antique collectibles and not functioning weapons it might be all right?

Anyway lots of pocket watches, some wrist watches and parts and lots of clocks and antique scientific items. I've won many items from Skinner and their assessments and customer service are spot on from my perspective


Here is the lot list, watches start on page 10.

Nice items. Thanks for posting. I've heard a lot about skinner but never checked it out. Very tempted on many items but the 6% sales tax and 23% premium is rough.

Very true, but if you can get an item for your price which includes those percentages added, then you've bought well. I don't win 90% of the items i bid on, but when i do win i don't over pay...
