Illinois Getty 16 size pocket watch with a 3 finger bridge. Custom made display case. It runs great and keeps time to within a minute a day. Comonly called a “sidewinder”, it is a hunter style movement in an open face case. Brand: Illinois Getty model Movement type: [windup] mechanical Setting method: lever set Jewel count : 17 Country of origin of movement: USA Country of origin of case: USA Condition of movement: running and keeping good time Service record: It has not been serviced Case material: solid nickel Dial material: porcelain Dial condition: it has a few hairlines Scratches on case: none Crystal material: glass on both sides Crystal condition: excellent Crown condition: very good This is a good looking Illinois watch. The movement is rust free. The movement is not marked Illinois, something they seemed to do on some of the Getty models? The bezel and back screw on and off easily. This is not a factory made display case, it was made using an vintage original Philadelphia silverode case and the back has been machined to accept a crystal. This is not one of the new cases. This is from an era when things were really made to last. It is 114 years old and in a world full of low quality new products, it still runs. Keeps time to within a minute a day.
