This is an “American Star” 21 jewel pocket watch that was made by Hampden. It is an 18 size lever set watch. The dial and movement are marked N. The watch was just serviced and it runs strong in all positions. Keeps time to within a minute a day. It was disassembled, ultrasonically cleaned, oiled and reassembled. It did not get a new mainspring. The movement is rust free. The porcelain dial had a huge chip at the top, which has been touched up. The case was a Keystone Watch Case Co silveroid case and the back has been replaced with another bezel from an identical case. Good glass crystals on front and back. Both bezels screw on and off easily with no cross threading. Bow stays in place. The dial will be hard to replace unless you just want to replace it with a Hampden dial?
