About Rockford Watch Company. The Rockford Watch Company was a watchmaking company based in Rockford, Illinois, that operated from 1874 to 1915. The company was founded by a group of local businessmen, including former employees of the Waterbury Watch Company, who saw an opportunity to establish a new watchmaking enterprise in the Midwest. At its peak, the Rockford Watch Company was one of the largest producers of high-quality pocket watches in the United States, producing over 300,000 watches during its 41-year history. The company was known for its innovative designs and high-quality movements, which were made entirely in-house. However, like many American watchmakers of the time, the Rockford Watch Company struggled to compete with imported watches from Switzerland and other countries. Today, vintage Rockford watches are highly sought-after by collectors, and the company is remembered as one of the most important American watchmakers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The Rockford Watch Company primarily produced pocket watches rather than wristwatches. This is because wristwatches did not become popular until the early 20th century, and the company had ceased operations by then. However, some pocket watches made by the Rockford Watch Company were later converted into wristwatches, either by the company or by later watchmakers. These converted watches are now considered to be rare and valuable collector’s items. Additionally, there have been modern watch companies that have revived the Rockford Watch Company name and produce wristwatches under that brand. After the company ceased operation, there were some watch and jewelry companies that have used the Rockford name as part of their branding, either as a tribute to the original company or simply as a marketing strategy. They in fact, produced wristwatches under the Rockford name. Please be prepared to stand behind any offer you make. Once we accept an offer, it takes the product off of the market for us AND other buyers. If you are considering making an offer and would like to know if we would accept a price, please simply message us and ask PRIOR to making the offer. We ask that you please make a formal offer only once you are committed to the offer. Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today’s watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don’t see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today’s offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size. We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust the lighting, when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that. The condition is pre-owned. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended. Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have. It will be carefully packed. Please view our other listings. If this item is a watch, unless otherwise noted, it is keeping accurate time over a 2-4-hour time period. We specialize in watches that are 20-100 years old, and as such, these items are previously worn, and the quality of the item WILL reflect that. Expect for a vintage timepiece to have blemishes… This is part of what gives these amazing pieces their charm. Further, unless a watch specifically says that it has been recently serviced, expect that at some point in time, this timepiece will need a professional servicing in order to run and keep excellent time, which is also part of the experience of owning any mechanical watch. If an extremely accurate, worry-free experience is what you are seeking, we would recommend purchasing a new quartz watch. Very few, if any, vintage watches will keep as accurate time as a modern quartz watch. We do our absolute best to take accurate photographs of our items and to show any blemishes. Examples of common characteristics of a vintage timepiece are: -imperfections on the crystal -imperfections on case -imperfections on the lugs -unless stated that the strap is new, the leather is often quite old and may need replacing in the future -metal bracelets may not include all of the links that the watch originally may have come with, but can be replaced with a bracelet or strap of your choosing. If the item is a piece of vintage jewelry, be aware that the item may have some minor blemishes such as: -missing stones (view photos, we will NEVER photoshop in a missing stone or piece) -minor scratches or discoloration -fading of plating -fading of paint. We do our best to take accurate photos and provide accurate descriptions. We want this purchasing experience to be pleasant and surprise-free. Vintage and antique items, unless “new old stock”, have been around the block a time or two. Thank you for your business! We hope to see you return in the future!
