Antique Waltham Equity pocket watch, 1913.
The watch has a seven jewel stem-winding movement, Equity model, Giant grade, which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and the serial number, 19,401,818, dates it back to 1913. The Giant grade was only in production for two years, namely 1913 and 1914. 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 plated and it is in good condition with just a couple of small knocks to the side and some marking around the edge of the lens. The hinged case back has engine turned detail which is still nice and crisp, and a central vacant cartouche.
The watch glass has a couple of small chips, the largest of which is only about 1mm diameter and a short light scratch.
The signed dial is in good condition, just two very faint hairlines beneath the sub seconds dial.
The watch comes in a new presentation box.
