Post some of your Coin silver pocket watch cases

[Jim Haney]

Welcome to the NAWCC Forums from down under....

It appears that it is marked 3 oz. Your movement is the thing about your watch, not many were Gold flashed.

Ya, that is a big one. I wear a few 4oz cases
regularly and can't imagine ever wearing an 8oz case.
I would need a belt, and suspenders, and tight pants
for them to stay up.

Yes, it is a big boy. Measures 66mm across, about 2.6 inches. Makes the 18s Illinois movement look small in comparison:

Hamilton 18s 930, OF, #26050, 16J, L/S. Finished and sold Oct. 19, 1897 to Stein & Ellbogen Co. Chicago.
Purchased as a movement only. Dial, hands, and, case came from stock of spare dials, hands and cases I've been buying over the years. This case is a Dueber coin silver triple hinged case that I'd had for awhile. The last 4 digits of the case serial number is stamped on the inside of the bezel, front of the case ring and full number on the dust and rear cover.
Quite well worn old thing that's had earlier guests.
