Waltham Seaside Pocket Watch, 1898

19th century
Description

Waltham Seaside pocket watch, 1898.

The watch has a 15-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 8,897,243 which dates it back to 1898. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 40mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside both of the case backs for Birmingham 1894 with a sponsor’s mark for Alfred Bedford, Manager of Waltham UK. The case is in good condition, and the engine turned detail on the back of the watch is still nice and crisp.

The glass lens is in good condition.

The signed dial has its original blued steel hands, and it is all in lovely condition.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Strictly Vetted Dealers

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.

Secure Transit

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.

The Sustainable Choice

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.

FAQs

Founded in Massachusetts in 1850, the American Waltham Watch Company pioneered industrial mass production techniques with interchangeable precision parts, revolutionising global horology during the nineteenth century.

Late Victorian pocket watches commonly featured sterling silver or gold cases, vitreous enamel dials with hand-painted numerals, tempered blued steel hands, and glass crystal covers protecting mechanical movements.

Authenticity is verified by matching the movement serial number stamped directly on the internal mechanism against historical Waltham manufacturing ledgers, alongside silver hallmark stamps inside the watch case.

Pocket watches are frequently displayed under glass cloches, suspended from dedicated pocket watch stands on desks or shelves, or presented within velvet-lined shadowbox frames.

Store pocket watches in a low-humidity environment, avoid overwinding the mainspring, and schedule professional horological servicing every three to five years to clean and lubricate internal mechanical components.
