A little help from Wikipedia. When Albert Villon established his watchmaking workshop in 1867 in Saint-Nicolas d’Aliermont, in the north of France, he specialized in marine clocks and travel clocks. Over the following decades, the company changed its name – from Duverdrey & Bloquel to Bayard – and manufactured many models of clocks, including traditional travel clocks with solid brass cases and stainless steel faces, sides, and backs. 1928 The Bayard brand is registered by the Société des Anciens Establishments Duverdrey-Bloquel. One sees appearing on the catalogs a circle marked with two stars, the sun, and the inscription “Bayard” and “D-B”. Important: The age of the piece is determined approximately. Any and all statements by me as to the authenticity, attribution, description, date, age, provenance, title, or condition of the work constitute my judgment and opinion only. Antique clocks are not new clocks! A centenary clock may not be perfect, don’t expect it to look like new. Please review carefully the photographs that are part of the description and which best represent the condition of the item. Several pictures were taken to show the condition.
