Illinois White Gold Filled New Yorker Art Deco Rare Model circa, 1928

About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Illinois Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: New Yorker METAL / MATERIAL: White Gold Filled CIRCA / YEAR: 1928 DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Length 27mm X Width 34mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding / 19 Jewels / Caliber 6/0 Size DIAL / HANDS: Two Tone Silvered with Luminous Arabic Numerals / Blued Steel Luminous Hands ATTACHMENT / LENGTH: Original Leather / New Lizard, 16mm / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This is the very rare New Yorker Model by an iconic American house, the Illinois Watch Company. The case is hand engraved and the movement is hand made and beautifully finished. We seldom see this unique model and this one is fitted what appears to be an original strap and buckle. The strap is too fragile to actually wear, but the buckle fits the new hand made lizard strap. This is a dependable and high grade watch and is a vault find, the watch, has been locked up for nearly 50 years, which means it needs a service. We will give it a factory quality service by our finest watchmaker as part of the purchase price before it is shipped out to you. This will delay shipping for a few days of course.
