Vintage American Waltham PocketWatch

By Joe5004, 19 July, 2017
Description

Not sure of the metals, inside, on the movement itself it says AMERICAN WALTHAM WATCH COMPANY across the bottom of the timepiece. Above, at the top of the timepiece is a number; 3428890. The backing spins off at counterclockwise, on the back of the backing it says ; KEYSTONE, it says BASE METAL, and then 7 numbers in a "V" fashion; 0944010. On the front of the watch, it says "Am' Watch C", and below that is says " Waltham". The face has dinged somewhat slightly, its an off yellow maybe? There is no dial set, the thing u twist to set time, its missing, so I have no clue if it works. My grandfather told it works a few months before he passed. There is a minute and hour hand, no second hand, however; it does have a seconds diallat the bottom of the face.
