1906-A 43mm (across dial) pocket watch in a swing-out case, by Waltham. The double-sunk metal dial bears arabic numerals and hash marks in the hour chapter, and the seconds dial bears black arabic numerals in 10-second intervals and hash marks. The hands are blued moons. The tip of the minute hand seems bent. The face is inscribed Waltham and is hand-painted with a bleeding heart surrounded bound in thorns, and a flaming cross above. Stem wind, stem set. The dial is worn and stained. The crystal bears a faint green cast. The mechanism swings out of the case, allowing view of it and the interior of the rear cover. The rear cover is inscribed For Waltham/ Colonial Series/ Warranted/ Crescent/ 25 years. The 3/4 plate, demaskeened, 17 jewel movement is inscribed A. W. W. Co./ Waltham, Mass./ 17 Jewels and the serial number, 14920416, dates the watch to 1906. The bow is missing, but making this a fine candidate for basic cleaning and repair.
