1888 American Waltham Big 18 Size Gold Filled Hunter Pocket Watch, Running

  
HE WOULD TRY TO KEEP EVERYTHING ON THE WATCHES ORIGINAL. THIS IS ONE FINE EXAMPLE OF THAT. HE KEPT VERY METICULOUS KEEPING RECORDS OF WHEN HE HAD CLEANED AND SERVICED A WATCH AND I WAS SURPRISED A BIT WHEN I FOUND THIS WATCH IN AN UNDATED CONTAINER.

MOVEMENT WITH MANY COLLECTORS BECAUSE OF THE FROSTED ACCENT AND ENGRAVING, IT WAS A BIT DIFFERENT FROM MOST WATCHES. THIS IS A 100% AUTHENTIC AMERICAN WALTHAM DOUBLE HUNTER MEN'S POCKET WATCH PRODUCTION DATE IS 1888-89. EVERY PART OF THIS WATCH IS SIGNED, DIAL, CASE, AND MOVEMENT. ALL GUARANTEED TO BE ALL ORIGINAL AND AUTHENTIC. STEM WIND AND LEVER SET.

HIGH GRADE 11 JEWEL NICKEL GREAT FROSTED DAMASKEENED OR ENGRAVED MOVEMENT, SUPER CLEAN , RUNNING STRONG, HAS BEEN FULLY CLEANED AND SERVICED, JUST NOT POSITIVE WHEN. WATCH IS RUNNING STRONG AS MENTIONED NUT SEEMS TO RUNNING SLOW AND MAY BE READY FOR A TUNE-UP OR FRESH SERVICE.

THIS IS NOT CONSIDERED RAILROAD GRADE AND IT IS NOT AN EXTREMELY HIGH JEWELED MOVEMENT BUT PRODUCED WITH HIGH GRADE COMPONENTS AS YOU CAN READ BELOW UNDER THE MOVEMENT SPECS. THE ORIGINAL SINGLE SUNK SIGNED PORCELAIN DIAL IS VERY NICE, THERE ARE A COUPLE OF. INVISIBLE VERY FINE HAIRLINES TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE DIAL, I HAVE TO MENTION THIS SINCE THEY SO MINOR I KNEW YOU WOULD NOT SEE THEM IN THE PICTURES.

IT IS EXTREMELY FINE ORIGINAL DIAL ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS 133 YEARS OLD. THE CASE IS A B AND B "ROYAL".

WARRANTED 20 YEAR YELLOW GOLD FILLED, IT. HAS NO WORN SPOTS ON THE GOLD, AND WITH THE POLISHED FRONT AND BACK YOU MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE IT PERSONALIZED WITH A NAME INITIALS, THERE'S ROOM FOR ANYTHING IF YOU SO CHOOSE. I HAVE FOUND AROUND HERE THERE ARE TROPHY SHOPS THAT DO A GREAT JOB OF ENGRAVING, ALSO JEWELERS. THE GLASS CRYSTAL IS FREE OF SCRATCHES. FROM THE AMERICAN HOROLOGY ARCHIVE.
