Pocket Watch: Antique Illinois Pocket Watch 1915

The watch has a signed 17-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. This is a good quality movement with a swan neck regulator and screw-set jewels. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 2763834 which dates it back to 1915. The watch measures 43mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop, so smaller than a standard 50mm pocket watch but not as small as a fob watch. The case is the white gold filled Champion model from the Dueber Watch Case Company. The case is in good condition, just a hint of unevenness to the back and some surface marking but all very acceptable. The glass lens is in lovely condition. The signed dial is in its original finish with original blued steel hands. The watch comes in a new presentation box. All Prices Include UK Postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
