A very rare Virgule escapement pocket watch

I occassionly work on antique pieces if they are "Interesting", this watch in a gold case and signed on the cuvette Pournier a Geneve, fell into the "interesting" catagory.. The dial is unsigned. The Lepine style movement is also not signed, it is possibl...  

That is interesting!
