Well, this is certainly one if the earliest wrist watches ever produced. We have had earlier ones, but not ones you could truly wear and count on. This one you can, even though it is 126 years old. The watch is entirely hand made in Elgin Illinois and it has just been serviced by our team and keeps dependable time. The movement is beautifully damascened and gilded. It was the highest grade calibers for it size and it also has a micrometer adjusted balance cock. The dial is fully enameled and is flawless as well. The blued steel hands appear original as does the luminous. We have had this watch in our collection for 40 years. You will likely never see as rare a wrist watch as this one.
