This vintage Waltham pocket watch from 1863 is a true piece of history. With a 7-jewel mechanical movement, it features a white enameled dial with Roman numerals and a 12-hour dial, as well as a spring cover and a seconds hand. The polished coin silver hunter case is adorned with a pre-Civil War seated liberty dollar fob and comes with a chain. The watch is key wind and key set, and the escapement type is undoubtedly key to its precise timekeeping. This pocket watch is not just a timepiece, but a symbol of a bygone era. With no water resistance, it is best kept safe from any exposure to moisture. The vintage styling and unique features, such as the double hunter closure and the use of a coin in its design, make this an exquisite piece for any collector.
