!9 Jewels

A fully jeweled Burlington gold watch. Circa 1910.

 

A watch with at least 17 jewels is often called a fully jeweled watch. This means that it uses jewel (usually ruby) bearings in the mechanical movement from the balance wheel all the way to the center wheel pivot.

 

Time does not end when your watch stops.
