The watch case is in good condition, all covers screwing on and off smoothly as they should. It has case maker's trade name, the "Philadelphia Watch Case Company" and also stamped "Silverode".

Silverode was a metal of nickel composition. These cases looked like silver but was far stronger and harder wearing. The white enamel dial is in very good condition. It has the hours in Arabic numerals and a sub-seconds dial at six o'clock. It is signed by the maker "Elgin".
