Antique Waltham Traveler Pocket Watch, 1903

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique Waltham Traveler pocket watch, 1903.

The watch has a 7-jewel stem-winding movement, Traveler grade, which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 12,815,849 which dates it back to 1903. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold filled and was supplied to Waltham UK by the English watch case maker Aaron Dennison. It is in good condition, just minor marking but nothing too serious at all.

The acrylic lens is in good condition.

The dial has a hairline by number 4 but it is faint.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

An open-face pocket watch from the Edwardian period features an exposed crystal dial without a protective metal cover, designed for immediate time-reading. Typically produced between 1901 and 1910, these timepieces feature keyless stem-winding mechanisms, enamel dials, and classic Roman or Arabic numeral layouts.

Pocket watches from this era commonly utilized gold-filled, rolled gold, or solid silver cases to protect the internal brass and steel movement. The watch faces were crafted using glass enamel fired onto copper plates, paired with blued steel hands and mineral glass crystals.

Authenticity is verified by opening the case back to inspect the movement serial number, which corresponds to American Waltham Watch Company production ledgers. Authentic movements feature engraved movement names, jewel counts, and factory hallmarks separate from the case makers marks.

A pocket watch can be displayed under a glass cloche on a dedicated pocket watch stand, or mounted within a shadow-box frame alongside mechanical diagrams. It serves as a tabletop conversation piece on study desks, mantelpieces, or library shelving units.

Keep the timepiece in a dry environment away from magnetic fields and extreme temperature fluctuations. Mechanical movements require professional servicing and re-lubrication every three to five years by a qualified horologist to prevent gear wear.
