According to information in "American Pocket Watches SeriaNumber Grade Book, 1993 Prices," Roy Ehrhardt & William Meggers, Jr., Heart of America Press, Kansas City, MO, 1993 (Still in print, see Heart of America Press (http://www.hoapress.com)), serial number 576,749 is a grade 570 made in about 1905. It sounds like a nice looking watch.

As it says in the upper left-hand corner of the page, we really can't discuss the value of specific watches, but I can say the condition will play an important part in its value. You can get a copy of "Complete Price Guide to Watches, No 22," C. Shugart, T. Engle and R. Gilbert, Cooksey Shugart Publications, Cleveland, TN, 2002 at the National Assoc. of Watch and Clock Collectors Gift Shop (https://www.nawcc.org/giftshop/americart/books.htm) or at most major bookstores. Or, now that you know the watch grade, you can search eBay for similar examples and see what they are selling for,

Good luck,
Kent
