Waltham 7J 16S 14K YG Model 1908 Hunting Case Pocket Watch Grade #610 85.8 grams. I wound it and it started right up and continued to run, however I do not know if it keeps good time. The outer covers have engine turnings and the front has a shield for a monogram. The inner cover is plain. The front cover is marked 14K 585/1000 Fine; the outer back cover is marked ROY 14K 585/1000 Fine 559033; the inner back cover is marked 14K 794466. The face is white porcelain with large black Arabic numbers and sweep second hand over the 6. There are also red numbers 5 – 60 for the minutes. It is in good condition but there is a light crack from the 11 to between the 6 and 7 and another from the center to the sweep 60. It is marked Waltham. The hands are intact and without damage. The crystal is in good condition. The movement is marked A. The watch weighs 85.8 grams / 55.1 dwt in total. The movement measures 40.6 mm across and the watch measures 49.1 mm without stem or crown. We found the following information on a community source page. Model refers to the overall design of the watch movement. Waltham’s model numbers generally correspond to the year in which the watch was designed or first introduced e. “83″ refers to the “Model 1883, ” which was first introduced in 1833 etc. Hunting: The stem is at the 3:00 position, and the movement is meant to be mounted in a case that has a covering over the face. “Sidewinders” are hunting movements in openface cases. More than one view is provided to best show design, construction and condition. Because we are not Watchmakers, we do not repair and cannot guarantee that watches we sell will run.
