About this item
This watch comes in a glass backed case. Going back a 100 years ago, salesmen from the watch companies would visit shops to show the latest models and rather house them in cases, where the back would have to be removed, they used these cases which had a snap on back with a glass back so the dial and movement were visible. Shops and prospective owners, would select the dial, movement and then the case they wanted for their watch.
This pocket watch was a beautiful gold and nickel decorated movement and was made by the Seth Thomas Watch Co.
Movement – the nickel full plate has a lever escapement and is decorated with nickel and gold two tone damascening. The movement is signed “Seth Thomas, Thomaston, Conn, 17 Jewels, Adjusted” # 233541 and is in 95% mint condition
Case – the movement comes in a white metal salesman display open face case which has a snap on back and bezel. The case has a glass over the dial and movement. The case has a smooth plain finish and is in 95% mint condition – a clean case
Dial – the white enamel dial is double sunk and has a full set of blue steel hands. The dial is signed “Seth Thomas” and is in 100% mint condition
The watch has a mineral glass over the dial and over the movement
The watch is stem wound / stem set
The watch measures 52mm wide x 19mm deep
