Footnotes:The remarkable pair of tapering springs carry the weight of the bowl, movement, bezel and glass and offer a good deal of shock absorption against any sudden surge or prolonged movement. Another example, number 316 is in the Musee des Arts et Metiers in Paris.The celebrated George Margetts (1748-1804) took James Hatton (c.1776-c.1824) as an apprentice. Hatton was no run-of-the-mill pupil the high level of his work, and his innovative approach to design, can be seen in products he jointly signed with Margetts, as well as those finished under his own name. It was almost certainly James Hatton who in about 1800 introduced the double frame construction for his eight day timekeepers. Although Margetts was said to have made improvements to the lever escapement at this time, it is far more likely it was also work done in his name by James Hatton. Hatton was a great asset to Margett's business, principally in the production of watches and pocket chronometers. From 1810 to 1824 he had premises at 4 St. Michael's Alley, Cornhill, London. James Hatton worked from St Michael's Alley, Cornhill from 1799 to 1812. A comprehensive account of his life and work can be found in Betts, J. (2017) Marine Chronometers at Greenwich.
