Please examine each picture carefully and contact me if you have any questions, as this is the watch that you will receive. When buying a watch, especially one that will be celebrating its 98th birthday this year, it's a good idea to have it checked and serviced by a pocket watch professional, as its history is unknown to me. It is being sold as-is with no warranty. All information regarding this watch was obtained from either the watch itself, its prior owner, and/or the Pocketwatchdatabase.com. All watches are shipped, unless otherwise requested, via USPS and insured. Thank you!
