About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Ingersoll Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: Art Deco Scout Watch METAL / MATERIAL: Base Metal CIRCA / YEAR: 1930's DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Length 32mm X Width 38mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding DIAL / HANDS: Original Scout Dial and Original Hands ATTACHMENT / LENGTH: Original Leather Strap with Integrated Compass 15mm / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This is the first time we have ever seen this Scout Compass Watch by the American House of Ingersoll. They made the first Mickey watches as well. While we have seen the Scout, never have we seen it fitted with the original compass feature. Now, this is not an every day watch, in fact if you wear it for even a day, the strap will deteriorate. It is simply to old. If you care to wear it though, we will service it and change to strap so you can. Otherwise, keep it as a piece of history.
