Title: Excellent WGF Illinois Medalist Serviced

Description: VERYGOOD condition. Really sharp looking watch from about 1929/30 in a nice original three piece white gold filled snap back case, model 193 and fantastic dial. I wish I could say it is original as there is a little aging seen outside the 5, but I think it is an older, very nice refinish. In other words, it was repainted some time ago. Extra nice thick beveled glass crystal adds authenticity to the age as that is the type they would have had way back then. The hand wound American made Illinois 12/0 size movement is a grade 207 and has been fully serviced, oiled and timed by our watchmaker. He also put a new mainspring in. There are some little tiny wear points on the back corners and watches this old were not made for water or dust resistance. Overall a stunningly attractive very vintage timepiece. A brand new high grade Hadley Roma lizard skin strap with a steel buckle to match the head is included. Measures 24 mm wide (not including the crown) x 38 mm long x 9 mm thick. {$449} Item #5363 SOLD
