The dial itself is signed by Elgin and a sunken auxiliary sub-seconds dial sits at the six o’clock position with fine black markers and numbered at every ten second interval, as well as it own matching fancy bright blue minutes hand. This incredible original dial is free of hairlines and nearly pristine! You collectors know a good thing when you see it!
Turning over this watch and looking inside the screw down case, you’ll be pleased to see that the exceptionally clean sturdy steel plate movement is signed “Waltham Riverside†and bears the serial number 29483988 which dates this very high grade 21 jewel piece to the pre-WW2 year of 1937. This railroad beauty is adjusted to Temperature and boasts a Jewel Main Wheel and Jeweled Settings in addition to 21 jewels. You’ll appreciate the superior American workmanship – this piece still runs with incredible accuracy and high precision! Twenty-one jewel railroad pocket watches are some of the most desirable American railroad watches, and beauties such as the Hamilton 950B, the Illinois Bunn Special, Elgin Father Time and this very prestigious Waltham Riverside are often the centerpieces of a fine pocket watch collection.
