Princess Anne wearing the ruby and diamond watch from Queen Mary ?

Princess Ann wore a ruby and diamond watch :
Can it be the ruby and diamond watch given as a wedding to Queen Mary by Mr Gillet.

What an interesting observation Franck! Although I have seen the photo before I hadn't spotted what Princess Anne was wearing on her wrist.
I suspect that the watch shown on Ursula's site is not the same as the one worn by Princess Anne.
For me, the big question is -- Ursula, how do you know that the watch is the one given to Queen Mary? Was it sold? If so, when? What was said about provenance?

This is quite fascinating Franck, I am almost certain QA was also in receipt of a Faberge watch of a similar look, I remember seeing it on a documentary where it touched on the well kept Faberge collection of QA and I believe to some extent Prince Charles. I wonder if the the other jewels PA the PR wears are also from the collection of QM or maybe QA or is it a personal set as the picture is a taken with her granny, the late QEQM. I am a firm believer that their lies in the vaults many unseen and unworn jewels stemming right away back to QV and by thus all the subsequent Queens consorts. But the Queen is such a conscious and private individual, we will never see a full quarter of what lies beyond those vaults.
Regards,
Dave.

While browsing some photos of Princess Anne, I've found one with the her wearing what it seems to be a matching bracelet to her ruby and diamond modern set.
At first sight, I though it was not the same necklace worn by the Princess with the "watch" (pendant looked more round) but I think it depends on the angle the photo was taken.
I'm pretty sure it's the same modern set.
Have a nice day !
