South Bend 18s 17J Pocket Watch Fancy Dial & Excellent Gold Filled Case
This is a beautiful overall watch. The movement is 18 size, 17 jewels, stem wind, lever set, adjusted, grade 341, serial #390071 (circa 1904). The watch runs well and has kept good time overnight on my bench. I have not had it cleaned or serviced, so I cannot guarantee it to be completely reliable. The fancy porcelain dial is excellent and has no hairlines or chips. It has a light pink center, and gold foil designs. Original gilt Louis XIV hands. The case is also wonderful on this watch. It is yellow gold filled, signed “Fahy’s MONTAUK GUARANTEED 20 YEARS”. The case has NO DENTS and NO BRASSING. The designs are sharp and not worn. No initial in the shield. This case is really great. It has a nice old beveled glass crystal.
