Antique Waltham Traveler Pocket Watch, 1902

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique Waltham Traveler pocket watch, 1902.

The watch has a seven jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 11,635,786 which dates it back to 1902. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is the gold plated Star model made by the Dennison Watch Case Company for Waltham. There is a slight indentation to the back and some light marking but overall the condition is good.

The glass is in good condition with just a couple of tiny marks towards the edge, barely noticeable to the naked eye. A little white reflection line over the number 2 in the first photo.

The signed dial looks good to the naked eye, a couple of short faint hairlines if viewed through a jeweller’s loupe. Blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute track.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Produced by the American Waltham Watch Company, stem-wound timepieces from this period represented a key era of mass precision horology and standardized industrial watchmaking at the turn of the twentieth century.

Pocket watch cases from this era were frequently crafted from gold-filled or rolled gold metal alloys, incorporating vitreous enamel dials, blued steel hands, and mineral glass covers.

Authentic pieces feature manufacturer markings printed on the dial face and engraved on the movement, as well as production serial numbers stamped inside the case back.

An open-face pocket watch can be displayed on a specialised brass watch dome, arranged within a valet tray, or mounted inside a glazed shadow box as a desk accessory.

Keep the item in a dry climate to protect against moisture and oxidisation, avoid over-winding the stem mechanism, and clean the outer metal case using a soft microfibre cloth.
