Hello,
I just registred on this forum as a new user. I aquired recently a restaured Waltham and am very happy with this pocket watch. Collecting for a long time watches with one pocket Watch - a Omega - I searched and found one old American with key winding which was my goal:
Grade: Home Watch Co.
Manufacturer: Waltham
Manufacturer Location: Waltham, Massachusetts
Movement Serial Number: 5342644
Grade: Home Watch Co.
Model: 1883
Estimated Production Date: May 1892 - August 1892
Run Quantity: 2,000
Total Production: 86,100
Size: 18s
Jewels: 7j
Movement Configuration: Either
Movement Setting: Key
Plate: Full Plate
Adjusted: No
Railroad Grade: No
Data Research: 1954 Waltham "Gray Book" List
Next goal is finding a railroad pocket watch like a Hamilton 992B which I find beautiful, but damn they are relative expensive considering they have to imported in Belgium (taxes have to be paid). The search can start, in the meanwhile I enjoy reading this forum.
Have a nice sunday,
Luc
