Waltham Pocket Watch

Description

I bought this over 20+yrs ago at an estate sale for my husband-I forgot how many jewel movement it has-my husband was a watch fanatic-and he took very good care of this one-I was told by a jeweler that the back has only been off 3 times-as jewelers mark is on inside of the back.  it's in excellent condition.  Approximately 15+ yrs ago-jeweler in Las Vegas appraised it at $800.00.  My husband passed away, and I have many other watches as well of his.

Is your watch marked "Waltham" or "Walthem"?  It's a big distinguisher as to what you actually have.  Asking because your title says, "Walthem".

Sorry, I typed it wrong-it is a Waltham-It has bigger black numbers on the outside, and smaller numbers around the outer edge of that with "60" above the 12 o'clock position-those numbers appear to be in a red or rust color-then there is also a smaller circle in black at the bottom, where the "6" o'clock position would be.
