This key is part gold, part gold on metal. It has an internal ratchet allowing it to wind in one direction only, thus preventing damaging fusee watches which can only be wound one way.

The long key has a fancy carved handle. The gold decoration around this has one part squashed from too much pressure when winding. The rest of the key has a long body with a gold sleeve with milled detailing and a suspension loop. It has a gold sleeve on a metal winding pipe and is a size 1-2. The key measures 36mm x 6mm and is in 90% mint condition – the milled gold sleeve below the handle and above the suspension loop has a split which is reflected in the price
