($25.00 shipping)
Reminiscent of a World War II ammunition case in matte camo green, complete with USA stencil and Air Force roundel, this storage piece is perfect for eight of your best 16-size watches. It measures roughly 4H x 8W x 8D" and has two lift-out felt-lined western red cedar trays. The lid has a rear stop just past the vertical, the front latch is locking, and soft feet keep it from sliding around. Inventory card included.
Watches not included. Domestic shipping only.
Imagine owning a mechanical work of art from an earlier century to tell the time, filled with tiny gears and moving parts, ticking in your pocket like a heartbeat. Many of the watches that we offer date to the 1800s and will be running long after your smartphone gets buried in a landfill.
Every vintage pocket watch featured in our Store has been completely restored back to original specs, meaning that all of its components are factory correct. Most of them are original combinations, still intact from the day that their very first owners purchased them.
One of Illinois's rarest watches was the 23-jewel Washington Lafayette. Only 190 were ever made.
