1897 Men's Waltham Manual Wind Watch - Restored and Running

Description: 1897 Men's Waltham Manual Wind Watch This is an beautiful men's Waltham manual wind watch, manufactured in 1897 (the serial number stamped on the movement indicates the year of manufacture). The 7 jewel movement has been cleaned and oiled, and the watch is keeping accurate time. The dial on this watch is in very good condition for the age, with only some wear around the edges where it has rubbed against the bezel, a couple small spots of discoloration, a few scratches, and typical patina. The engraved base metal bezel and case have been cleaned and polished, and both show minor silver color loss on the high points (see pictures). A brand new acrylic crystal has been installed. A brand new black leather strap has been installed. Overall, the watch is in very good condition and ready to wear! I try to be very thorough with the description and details, but feel free to ask any questions not covered by the pictures or description prior to purchase.Please keep in mind that it takes a lot of my time, money, and knowledge to get these watches in reliable, running order and to make them look the best they can. I believe I am listing each watch at a fair market value -- I take the time to do a lot of research, and frequently check the "going rate" for watches that are similar to what I am offering, and adjust according to condition. As a result, I do not accept offers. Thank you for your understanding.I do combine shipping -- all items purchased at the same time will be shipped together in one box for a flat $6.00 fee. Simply add the items you wish to purchase to your cart, and when you check out, you should see one $6.00 flat shipping charge. Send me a message if for any reason you see shipping charges greater than $6.00 so that I can send you a refund of the excess.
