Abstract:		 Little is known of the earlier Scottish watchmakers, though one of the most notable of early watchmakers in this country and the first master of the Incorporated Clockmakers was a Scot, David Ramsay, whom James VI, on his accession to the throne of England, appointed keeper of his clocks and watches. There are in existence a considerable number of watches signed by him, one of which bears the legend, "David Ramsay Scotus me fecit." On the face of this watch, above the dial, it bears the\r\nScottish crown surmounted by the Scottish lion sejant, and below the dial the fleur-de-lys surmounted by a crown. The representation within the dial is identified as Edinburgh Castle and its environs.
