Movement: This gilt finished movement is marked with "Woolworth, SPRINGFIELD, MASS". The gilt finish still looks good, although it is more dull than when new from 120+ years of service. It features 15 jewels in screw down jewel settings and fire blued plate screws. The latest research indicates that it is and "adjusted" movement. This was one of the highest grades in production in the early 1880's, and one of the earliest lever set/stem wind watches (most watches were key wound in the early 1880s). This well running high grade watch has been professionally serviced, and is keeping good time!

Case: The nickel alloy screw back and bezel case is marked PHILADELPHIA WATCH CASE CO SILVERODE inside back lid. There is some wear from normal use. The threads on the bezel and back cover are a bit worn bit still thread on and off. The crown has some wear but still winds and sets the watch properly. The round bow is nice and snug.

Crystal:  It has been recently fitted with a new old stock clear glass crystal that is in new condition!
