Pocket Watch Case

THANK YOU for considering our sparkling clean and great running Waltham “Vanguard” 16 size 23 jewel Wind Indicator watch. Here are the details. 25,344,504, circa 1926, 16 size, open face, 23 jewels, adjusted to temperature and 6 positions, Model 1908, Grade Vanguard, large raised gold jewel settings, gold center wheel, huge all-gold balance screws, Lossier hairspring, ¾ nickel plate, stem wind, lever set railroad-grade movement. This fine antique watch is in excellent working order, with a dead flat and true balance wheel motion that has a fine, wide arc and strong, steady beat. The movement is a smooth wind, starts right up on my 8th wind with no coaxing, and lever sets as designed. The movement holds excellent time but has not been further regulated or adjusted! Appearance-wise this movement is looking great, with 100% tarnish-free and clean winding wheels, equally bright and clean faux bridge nickel plates with all of the attractive gold engraving paint intact, correct and spotless screw micrometer regulator whip and index, super pristine looking inside, and running strong and steady!! Dial : Factory original (not reproduction) Waltham non-sunk painted black-on-tan metallic Blindman sized black Arabic numerals with black minute markers and correct seconds chapter and wind indicator chapter. This dial is in near mint condition, with none of the staining or fading so common for metallic dials, no scratches or other unsightly detractions from a clean and clear view of the time and wind! Hands : Correct ultra bold matching blue “whip” style for Waltham railroad grade watches with the distinctive “club” second hand, almost all of the original finish (not doctored-up aftermarket stuff) intact, and correct for this model! Boss made for Waltham signed original 16 size, 14K engraved white gold fill, slots left and right, screw-back-and-bezel railroad case! This gorgeous Art Deco style case features a handsome ovaline blank cartouche at the center in back for a monogram, then fancy floral patterns top and bottom, Deco style pinstriping on the sides and nicely beaded edge work with the railroad-style neck, crown and engraved bow!! This case is in fully serviceable condition. I have restored and detailed this case right down to the threads so you get the best looking and working case possible! The back and bezel thread up easily, screw on and off smoothly, and both seat tight. The correct matching original crown’s fluting is still deep and crisp for a tight, sure grip, and it turns freely but does not extract, having the slot-left feature for the Waltham railroad-grade movement. The crystal is a high-domed plastic model with no visible issues. The case does show exceedingly minimal wear, including light, even carrying wear, no marrings or doodlings, zero brass detectable, and absolutely, positively no sign of any dents, dings, dimples or depressions! I’ve owned this fine timepiece for 20-odd years and it has always run accurately and never failed to please and delight!!

THANK YOU for considering our highest quality, strong running and almost perfectly accurate Hamilton Grade 950B railroad-grade watch. Here are the details. S18267, circa 1953, 16 size, open face, 23 jewels, adjusted temperature and 6 positions, double roller, Model 6, Grade 950B, Elinvar bimetallic hairspring, cupped gold jewel settings, gold balance screws, ¾ nickel plate, stem wind, lever set beauty. This late-model superlative condition 950B movement is in tip-top working order, with a dead flat and true balance wheel that has a wide, fine arc and a strong, steady beat. The movement is a solid wind, starts up with a single flick of the wrist (950Bs like their little brother, the 992Bs, are notoriously stiff starters), and lever sets as designed. The movement holds almost perfect computer time after years of careful and prolonged regulating. With respect to appearance, this movement is looking top-flight, with a high degree of brilliance to its toning, no tarnish, 100% spotless winding wheels, no stains or fading, no jeweler’s marks, all apparata complete and running strong and true holding railroad time! Dial : Pristine perfect condition Hamilton “Blindman Monty” “Hamilton Railway Special” style, 16 size, open face, non-sunk enamel, super bold black Arabic numerals with surrounding red five-minute-markers and black minute-markers, 3-post dial! This dial is in just about as perfect condition as can be imagined, with not even the slightest suggestion of anything approaching a hairline, chip, crack, chaffing, stain or scratch! Hands : RR bold original finish black new-old-stock (NOS) matching spade hour and pointer minute hands in superlative condition, with close to 100% of the original lacquer finish intact and correct for any 950B! Case : Correct for the late-model Grade 950B of this era marked bar-over-crown (BOC) “Hamilton Watch Company” Case Model #17 by Star WCCo. 16 size, open face, 10K yellow gold fill, slot right, screw-back-and-bezel case! Here’s Hamilton’s last and arguably best bar-over railroad case, the #17, with the smooth back, nicely engraved edges, the thick neck, wide and wind-able original crown, classic bar-over feature, distinct model bow and all the classic railroad-ready features!! This highly collectible and fine case is in fully serviceable condition. I have restored and detailed this case right down to the threads so you get the best looking and working case possible! The back and bezel thread up easily, screw on and off smoothly, and both seat tight. The correct signed original “Hamilton Railroad” crown’s fluting is still sharp and defined for a tight, sure grip, and it turns freely but, by design, does not extract, so only a lever-set e. Hamilton railroad-grade movement will work inside. The bow is also correct, shows zero brass or damage, and holds tight to positions. The bar-over is correct and about 92% winding wear-free!! The crystal is a brand-new looking beveled mineral glass model with zero issues. The case does show exceedingly minimal wear, including superficial exterior scratches only and one more prominent scratch, no marrings or doodlings, zero brass anywhere whatsoever, and absolutely, positively no sign of any dents, dings, dimples or depressions! I’ve owned this fine timepiece for 20-odd years and it has always run accurately and never failed to please and delight!!
