Product Details
Waltham Vanguard Railroad Pocket Watch with Up/Down Wind Indicator and Steam Engine Case
The Waltham Vanguard is a renowned railroad-grade pocket watch movement, known for its 23-jewel construction and high-quality design, often featuring a 5-position adjustment for accuracy. The Waltham Watch Company played a significant role in shaping the watch industry, and the Vanguard is a testament to their engineering prowess.
The Up/Down Wind indicator adds significant value to this watch. An "up/down" or "wind" indicator, often found on railroad pocket watches, shows the amount of power remaining in the mainspring, indicating how much time the watch will run before needing to be wound again.
