Waltham Pocket Watch 1905

Waltham 14K Gold Pocket Watch 1905

14 karate gold Waltham pocket watch with hunter's case, made in Waltham, Massachusetts, in 1905 - 116 years ago. Runs perfectly. The chain was made in England and is 10k gold, as most watch chains were in those days. That's why it's a different shade of gold. Like most English things, of this sort, every individual link in the chain is hallmarked with the English lion rampant. The fob is silver with gold in the center. Abraham Lincoln had a Waltham like this in his vest pocket, the night he was assassinated - only 40 years earlier.
