Title: Rare 21j South Bend "The Studebaker" RR Pocket Watch
Description: VERYGOOD condition. A difficult watch to obtain in today's growing market. Different than a Studebaker these rare watches have "The" in front of the word and were made in much smaller runs. This is a 16 size American made watch with a nice triple hinged Dueber 20 year gold filled case which shows no wear through to brass but does have a few case opener's marks near the lip of the back and the cuvette (dust cover). The beautiful back has an engine turned background and hand engraved leafy type pattern over and above the open (unsigned) cartouche. Even though we see no addition case/movement screw marks I don't believe it is the original. The acrylic crystal is perfect but not the original. The original double sunk porcelain dial does have a few semi-circular hairline cracks near the 11. Looking at the gorgeous bridge plated lever set movement we notice several virtues. It has raised solid gold jewel settings held in place with screws, a double roller, swan's neck regulator spring, a solid gold wheel train and adjustments to temperature and in five positions. It measures 51 mm wide. {$1275} Item #5410
