Antique Hamilton 12s 17j Pocket Watch 20 Year GF Montauk Case. Nice solid antique shape. I did get the watch to run, but it is missing the minute and hour hands, and it is missing the crystal. It definitely needs serviced as well. It shows normal wear and age. Face has several hairlines as shown. Case has scuffing and patina. Movement serial number is 1785856, and case serial number is 8993185.

2 inches across x 2.5 inches tall x 1/4 inch thick. It is marked on inside Elgin Natl Watch Co. Philadelphia Watch Case Co. It does not work but gears sporadically spin and it probably needs a cleaning. I know nothing about watches so ask questions before purchasing. Item has some wear, scuffs, dings from age and use. Fresh from an upstate NY estate.
