Try the Pocket Watch board. They can probably answer your question better :)

Perhaps one of the monitors' will move your post over there.

either way I would love to see a pic of that. I do not have any pocket watches yet but I would love to have a few of them. That sounds like a pretty nice watch. I love the history behind this hobby!

Hi, mgarland, welcome to the message board. I am going to move your thread down to the American pocketwatch forum for better exposure.

[terry hall]

and those of us resident to this forum welcome you...

but we will need a bit more information and images do help so much more than words....

also... take a look at the sticky post at the top of this section about Illinois watches... browze about a bit

also try the search feature....

Hi, mgarland, and welcome to the message board.

You might want to check out some of the links found here (http://mb.nawcc.org/showthread.php?t=39048).

If you can provide us with a serial number found on the movement of your watch and some pictures, that would be great.

This link here (http://www.thewatchguy.com/pages/OPENCASE.html), provided by Kevin James, gives some great information on how to open a watch case.
