The locomotive is picked out in contrasting gold and silver inlay, creating a particularly effective period design with strong appeal to collectors of both watches and railway memorabilia.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"710\" data-start=\"350\"\u003eThe white enamel dial is clearly signed Waltham and remains in very good condition, with bold black Arabic numerals, an outer minute track, blued-steel hands and subsidiary seconds at six. There are a few very light hairlines around one o’clock, though these are difficult to notice without close inspection. The crystal is clear and free from cracks or chips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1073\" data-start=\"712\"\u003eThe high-grade damascened movement is signed American Waltham Watch Co. and fitted with 15 jewels, a Breguet hairspring and safety pinion. It was reportedly serviced recently by the previous owner and is running well while keeping very good time. The screw-off front bezel allows access to the dial, while the movement is released through the pendant mechanism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1400\" data-start=\"1075\"\u003eThe substantial 0.925 silver case remains in very good condition, with firm hinges, a polished finish and only light age-related marks. The gold winding crown and bow provide an attractive contrast with the silver case. Measuring 58mm in diameter and approximately 20mm thick, the watch has an impressive weight of 153 grams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eCirca: 1900\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eCase Size: 58mm diameter x 20mm thick\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eMovement: American Waltham, 15 jewels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eDial: White enamel, very light hairlines near one o’clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eCase: 0.925 silver with locomotive engraving and gold and silver inlay\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1673\" data-start=\"1402\"\u003eWatch has been recently serviced \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Ashton-Blakey Vintage Watches","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45888594837695,"sku":null,"price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1242\/0384\/files\/NKN_9277.jpg?v=1784668205","url":"https:\/\/ashton-blakey-antiques.com\/products\/antique-c-1900-waltham-15-jewel-silver-pocket-watch-with-gold-silver-locomotive-inlay","provider":"Ashton-Blakey Vintage Watches","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
