How do I know if my Waltham pocket watch is real gold?
Real gold Waltham pocket watches will include a stamp on the rear of the case cover indicating the karat of gold used to create the watch. Several other stamped lines may also indicate a gold watch. However, the best way to determine if a gold Waltham pocket watch is authentic is to work with a certified appraiser. Find a variety of expertly vetted gold Waltham pocket watches on 1stDibs.
