The Vintage Wrist Watch Company

Description

Antique Waltham pocket watch, 1904.

The watch has a grade 81 15-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 13,952,752 which dates it back to 1904.

The watch measures 58mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case was supplied to Waltham by the Keystone Watch Case Company. It is marked as being “Silveroid”, an alloy often used in watch cases around this time, and it came under various names such as Silverore and Silverine. The case is in lovely condition.

The signed dial has blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer red 5 minute markers. There is a chip to the centre of the dial, and a short faint hairline running down from number 12 but it is difficult to see with the naked eye.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
