Please post some pictures of your new addition, would love to see it!Thank you so much for this thread; this is, atleast for a Google search of my newly acquired Westfield model, the best resource to get more information and ads about the history of Westfield.
I just bought a 1929 "Kenton" in amazing condition except for the dial with patina on it; crystal is good, but still needs at least cleaning and oiling. It is one of the drivers watches with flexible lugs.
You've lost meAn interesting question for me would be since it didnt come with a watch case, but I would definitely want one with it, what kind of style they used in 1929 since there are different cases; maybe someone has a case of that time
Are you asking about the "box" that the watch came in?
Did you ever find the box that was appropriate for that period watch?It will be completely restored, it needs to be cleaned, oiled and eventually a restored dial. The crystal is in unbelievable good condition, it runs and the lugs move nicely. The 10B movement runs, but weak so it will need work.

Dial has been "tastefully refinished".
Did you ever find a "pre 30's watch with the emeralds or sapphires?Hi! Runs fine 6 jewels. The enamel was apparently done by the Providence case company another user suggested on here,? But I agree usually emeralds are found on them. The dial hands and strap are original according to the seller. I agree its very nice the black paint adds to the 20s glam if you ask me
We are looking for another 20s watch with emeralds/sapphires , preferably a Bulova/Westfield pre 1928 if anyone knows anyone who would sell to the UK we would be always open to take a look.
Cheers
