Description

Antique 1897 Waltham pocket watch.

The watch has a 17-jewel stem-winding movement, grade 20, which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and the serial number 8214253 which dates it back to 1897. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is 14ct gold filled and was made by the Dennison Watch Case Company. The case has light surface marking from use and a small "ding" to the back but overall it is in nice condition for a 1897 piece.

The glass lens has minor marking from use although very acceptable.

The signed dial has a couple of small surface marks but overall it is in nice condition for an 1890s piece.

The watch has its original blued steel hands.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
