Description

Antique Waterbury Watch Co pocket watch & chain.
The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed with the Waterbury Watch Co logo, and also the name Charles Benedict. In 1879 Charles Benedict, of Benedict & Burnham Manufacturing Company, supplied some of the machinery for the Waterbury factory. There are various patent numbers underneath the balance, dating from 1874 to 1886.
In 1898 the company was reorganised and became the New England Watch Company.
The watch measures 52mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold filled and it is in good condition, just slight unevenness to the case back.
The glass lens is in good condition.
The signed dial is in good condition with blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute track. Push the crown in and turn the crown anti-clockwise to set the time.
The watch comes with a single rope twist albert, 29cm long including the T-bar and the clasp, and also a sovereign holder fob.
The watch and chain are different shades of gold but this is how they came to us so we have decided to keep them together.
The watch and chain come in a new presentation box.
ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland).
Please contact us regarding international shipping.
All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.
