Waltham Riverside conversion from 1919

American Waltham Watch Co. was in operation from 1852-1957 and was an American pocket watch manufacturer. Manufacturing of Waltham watches took place at their facility in Waltham, Massachusetts.

This Waltham pocket watch was manufactured in Waltham, Massachusetts, and was finished in 1919. It is powered by the Riverside grade movement, which is a 19 jewel Waltham in-house movement that was produced between 1895-1922. The movement has been restored and custom refinished with blue accents, and the movement screws have been finished in blue as well. The accents were created through thermally treating each movement part by hand to color the iron based components. The hands of the watch have not been restored and are in their original heat blue color. The Waltham dial is porcelain-enamel with elegant Arabic numerals and is in flawless condition. The watch is cased in a new silver-colored wrist watch conversion case so the watch can be enjoyed on your wrist. This case is designed with adjustable lugs making the watch easy to wind and set. The adjustable lugs also permit a more custom fit for different wrist sizes. The watch comes fully serviced and ready for your next adventure. Because of our dedication to preserving history, the original 25 year gold filled pocket watch case will be included as well.
