About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Illinois Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: Cushion Shape / Art Deco METAL / MATERIAL: White Gold Filled CIRCA / YEAR: 1920's DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Length 33mm x Width 27mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding / 15 Jewels DIAL / HANDS: Original Dial with Radium Numerals / Blued Steel Radium Hands ATTACHMENT / LENGTH: Original Leather Black 16mm (supplied with additional straps) / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT We seldom see vintage wrist watches from this era still in new / old stock condition. This one is fitted with its original strap, buckle and box as well. We will supply it with additional straps because the original one will deteriorate quickly if you wear it. We have just serviced this watch, the first time ever in its nearly 100 years. Imagine you never had a bath until you were 95 years old, that is what happened to this watch. I purchased it nearly 50 years ago from the jeweler that originally offered it for sale in the 1920's. Since it never sold and went out of style he just put it in a box with the rest of his unsold inventory. I do not want to die with it either, so it for sale now. You will be the first true owner of this mint condition watch.
