Fine 17j Waltham Appleton Tracey model 1892

Fine 17j Waltham Appleton Tracey model 1892

Fairly scarce early railroad watch made by Waltham Watch Co. in 1901.
The 18 size movement is a full plate model 1892 which was the last and best 18 size watch made by Waltham. This is an "Appleton Tracey" grade with 17 jewels, a Swiss lever escapement with double roller, Sapphire pallets and gold timing screws. It has a "Church 1892" micro-regulator and gold jewel settings.
This watch has just been fully serviced and has a new mainspring so it's mechanically sound and runs with strong amplitude in all positions whilst keeping excellent good time to within a few seconds per day.
The watch is stem wind and lever set (withdraw the small lever by the 2 and rotate the crown to set the time).
The movement is housed in a hefty 3 piece case made from heavy gauge "Silverode" which is a Nickel / Silver alloy. The case is in fine condition with no dents and just the smallest pin head sized ding to the main band by the 3. Both covers remove / replace easily and both close down square and tight all around.
The original white enamel dial has red 5 minute markers around the outer track and is in fair condition. There are no chips or cracks but there is a small collection of fine hairlines around the 8 and some around the 4. Not too noticeable in the hand but they are there.
Time indicated by a good set of blued steel hands under a good replacement acrylic crystal.
Overall a fine pocket watch in lovely overall condition and working as it should.
