Waltham Full Hunter Pocket Watch for Thomas Russell

Waltham full hunter pocket watch for Thomas Russell.

The watch has a seven jewel stem winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is the Export grade but was re-named Tempus for Thomas Russell, their logo included the wording Tempus Fugit. The movement is signed American Waltham USA, Tempus and it has the serial number 21,773,011 which dates it back to around 1917. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 51mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated. It has light surface marks and a couple of small knocks but overall, is very acceptable for such an early piece.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover. Inside, there is a glass lens which is in lovely condition.

The dial is signed with both the Thomas Russell and Waltham logos. Blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers. There are a few hairline cracks to the right hand half of the dial.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.
