Ollendorff 56 Diamonds 2.0cttw Platinum Art Deco Ladies Wristwatch Circa 1920s
Located in North Attleboro, MA
This is a WOW, WOW... WOW!!! Absolutely stunning Art Deco platinum and diamond Swiss-made, spring-wound wristwatch by Ollendorff circa the late 1920s! It's not just a timepiece, it's a gorgeous, luxurious and hand-crafted piece of historical fine jewelry. 56 diamonds, 2.0cttw. With its tiered rows of 16 round-cut glittering diamonds reaching from either side of the platinum case to the lugs, the design was likely inspired by the iconic terraced crown of the Chrysler Building in New York City. If the diamond and platinum case weren't luxe enough, the original watch band is comprised of two buckles set with 10 diamonds, leading to 30 chevron-shaped platinum links with milgrain detailing, each set with their own diamond as well! The watch has a total of 56 diamonds for approximately 2.0cttw. This watch is a sparkling show-stopper, a rare piece. Total length of 6.75 inches; suggested maximum wrist circumference is 6.5" for a comfortable fit. Links could be removed by your local jeweler if you prefer a smaller circumference. * Swiss movement * Model number 10456 * Seventeen jewels. The watch is fully jeweled, meaning that the watch uses jewels (in this case rubies) as bearings in the inner mechanical movement from the balance wheel all the way to the center wheel pivot. * Inside of caseback marked .900 PLAT .100 IRID The watch was serviced by a master watch craftsman in 2016. Runs and keeps time; please note future performance cannot be guaranteed due to the age of the piece. Free of monograms or inscriptions - the perfect clean canvas for your own personal gift message! The Ollendorff Watch Company was founded in 1868 by Isador Ollendorff. The company imported watches from Switzerland and was run by the family in New York City until it was sold to the Gotham Watch...

1863 Waltham CIVIL WAR Pocket Watch - Same Model Given to Abraham Lincoln
By American Waltham Watch Co.
Located in Suwanee, GA
NAMED ONE OF WATCHPRO MAGAZINE’S “HOT 100” - THE TOP 100 INFLUENCERS OF THE U.S. WATCH INDUSTRY. HOW CAN WE SERVE YOU? We’re new to offering our carefully curated collection on 1stDibs, but we have sold over 10,000 fine watches and exceptionally served thousands of customers with a 5.0 star rating. 1863 American Watch Co. / Waltham CIVIL WAR 18 Size Pocket Watch - Same Model Given to Abraham Lincoln Highly Collectible - Same Model Given to President Lincoln - 1 Year Warranty One of the iconic American pocket watch companies was American Watch Co., later known as Waltham for the city in which it was founded. In 1860, as President Abraham Lincoln was elected, the country was in Civil War. Production ground to a halt. However, the company decided to downsize to the lowest possible level to keep the factory open. It worked: In honor of his Gettysburg Address, President Lincoln became the proud owner of a Waltham Model 1857 "Wm. Ellery" pocket watch, the same model offered here today. President Lincoln's watch was made in January 1863. What's remarkable is that according to the company's handwritten ledger, this Waltham Model 1857 "Wm. Ellery" watch, the same model given to President Lincoln, was made in a run of watches made from December 1862 through January 1863. Nearly a couple of dozen Civil War Walthams have passed through our halls over the years, but this is the closest production date to Lincoln's we have ever had - the very same month! (see a photo of the page below). Here is a little more about it... * Heavy silver hunting case with a shield type motif on the front and nicely decorated case band in excellent condition. Many of these had plain case bands. * Original porcelain dial * Large 18 size, measuring 54.5mm in diameter * Key wound movement with winding key * Engine has a diamond end stone protecting the most import pivot * All original parts with original and correct Waltham case. The American Watch Co. marking of this example's case has a delightful simple charm and is something that we don't recall ever seeing before. When this watch was being crafted in late 1862 and early 1863, the United States was in the firm grip of the Civil War. In December 1862, the nation reeled from the devastating Battle of Fredericksburg (December 11–15, 1862), where Union forces under Major General Ambrose Burnside suffered a crushing defeat against Confederate General Robert E. Lee’s entrenched army. The staggering loss — more than 12,000 Union casualties — sent shockwaves through the North, dampening morale as winter set in. Meanwhile, in the White House, President Abraham Lincoln was preparing to take one of the boldest steps in American history. On January 1, 1863, just weeks after Fredericksburg, the Emancipation Proclamation took effect, declaring enslaved people in Confederate-held territories to be free. Though its immediate impact was limited geographically, it transformed the war into a moral crusade against slavery and ensured that any hope of foreign intervention on behalf of the Confederacy would be politically untenable. In daily life, both Union and Confederate citizens endured shortages, inflation, and uncertainty. Railroads carried troops and supplies through snow-covered landscapes, factories churned out arms and uniforms, and newspapers across the country carried news from the front. Against this turbulent backdrop, skilled watchmakers in the North continued to produce fine timepieces — practical necessities for soldiers, railroad men, and civilians alike. A watch made in these months would have ticked through a turning point in American history, keeping time as the nation’s course shifted toward freedom and eventual reunification. One of our Master Watchmakers has disassembled the watch down to its last screw and serviced it making it ready for immediate enjoyment. Kindly note that these were not highly jeweled watches...
