Howard Watch Company was one of worlds finest watch factories. Even Patek Philippe tried to match their excellence in production and finish. Howard, by the way, is the only American Watch to ever meet the engineering criteria of the renowned "Geneva Seal" watches made in Geneva Switzerland. Watches meeting the Geneva Seal criteria, while being made in Geneva, had to meet rigorous design features which only were met by one American Watch Company, this model, made by Howard. This watch was originally produced as a pocket watch but it has been converted to a wrist watch with a custom made exhibition case. You can wear this watch all the time and count on it to get you there on time as well. And you will never see another one of these again on anyone's wrist.

One of the most respected names in American watch making, was the house founded by Edward Howard in Boston Massachusetts in 1858. Howard was an exceptional watchmaker who had worked originally for the Willard Clock Company. Willard was the premier American clock maker and advanced American horology. Howard’s exceptional designs and innovations helped establish America as a watchmaking capital along with the Waltham Watch Company. Howard’s creativity helped establish the principles of industrialization and standardized parts. Howards watches were rugged and very accurate as well. Their case designs were innovative as well. Howard watches were used by scientists and engineers in military and industry because they were rugged and dependable.

During the 1920’s Howard produced the 12-size caliber which was a beautifully finished watch that kept exceptional time.
