Antique 1920s Silver Waltham Pocket Watch

1900 - 1920
Description

Antique 1920s silver Waltham pocket watch.

The watch has a grade 610 7-jewel stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 24,230,601 which dates it back to 1922. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has a little unevenness and some surface marking.

The watch measures 49mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is silver and there are hallmarks inside the case backs for Birmingham 1925 with a maker’s mark for the English case maker Aaron Dennison, supplier of cases to Waltham UK. The case is in good condition, just a slight indentation to the hinged back.

The acrylic lens is in good condition, as is the signed dial.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

This pocket watch dates to the 1920s period in an Art Deco style, constructed from silver, enamel, and steel in a silver colour. The open-face design incorporates a white enamel dial, black Roman numerals, blued steel hands, an onion crown, and a subsidiary seconds dial. Hallmarks for Birmingham 1925 appear inside the case backs, alongside a maker's mark for the English case maker Aaron Dennison, who supplied cases to Waltham UK. The watch measures 49 mm in diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop, and features an inner hinged cover with slight unevenness and surface marking, plus a slight indentation to the hinged back. Owners today might display it in a gentleman's library setting or keep it within a collection as a functional historical accessory.

FAQs

Founded in Massachusetts, the Waltham Watch Company pioneered mass-produced precision pocket watches with interchangeable parts. By the 1920s, Waltham was renowned globally for producing accurate mechanical movements housed in high-grade silver, gold, and filled cases.

Timepieces from this era typically featured solid sterling silver or nickel cases, vitreous white enamel dials, heat-blued steel hands, and precision-engineered brass internal movement components.

Authentic examples feature the makers mark on the dial, crisp silver hallmarks on the interior case back, and unique movement serial numbers engraved directly onto the internal plates.

Pocket watches are frequently presented on specialised brass display stands, placed beneath small glass cloches on desks, or mounted within fabric-lined shadow boxes alongside horological accessories.

Keep the piece in a dry environment to minimise silver tarnish and avoid exposure to water. Mechanical movements require professional horological servicing every three to five years to clean and lubricate internal gears.
