Bunn Special 16s Hunting Case. 16 size 21 jewel hunting case lever-set Bunn Special pocketwatch movement/dial/hands. Beautiful and rare high grade hunting case railroad watch, this movement style is listed with a total production of 700 made and is identified as a “Variant D” in Mike Chamelin’s Bunn Special book and is the final variety of hunting case Bunn Special that Illinois made. Movement is very nicely finished with ruby jewels in raised gold settings, gold balance screws, gold train wheels, mirror finish steelwork, and rayed pattern nickel damaskeening. Watch is fronted by its correct double-sunk enamel dial with Gothic numerals and Old English signature. Serial number is 4216302 which dates this movement to about 1923. Running and a beautiful movement with excellent color and luster. Movement lettering has some black color loss in areas which could be retouched, and larger winding wheel has some small bits of oxide to its perimeter. Dial is near perfect with only a small very light hairline below the seconds-bit at the 30 minute position. The rear side of the dial has been checked and it is a correct original Model 8 dial with unaltered feet at the 13, 39, and 58 minute positions; this is always very important to check as the hunting case lever-set Model 8 and 12 Illinois movements have unique dial feet positions and for one of these movements lacking its original dial a correct dial is very hard to come by.
