Lot: 496 Description: AT&SFe TRAIN DESPATCHER - enameled on face of 21 jewel pocket watch with Montgomery dial. Gold embossed case and appears to be in working order. I have been unable to unscrew the back to see who the manufacturer is. There is a small hairline on the face between 2 & 3 on the dial. Outer ring that holds the crystal in place shows wear. Still an early piece. This is from Warren Scholl's collection and there is no question that this is a rare find sure to be a welcome addition.
Please note: It has been brought to my attention that this was manufactured by Numa Frechelin, a Swiss maker of American style watches #859. My thanks to Jim Greulich for sharing this information. Minimum bid: $300 Price Realized: $400 |
