Reply to "Railroad Pocket Watches"

Great read through this thread.  I know just enough about RR watches to be dangerous.  I think I might have posted this first watch before, but do not see it in this thread.  I apologize if it’s a repeat.

first is a Hamilton 992, 1908 railway special, size 18, 21 jewels, adjusted for temperature and 5 position.  Montgomery dial, with the B&O logo. It’s in a flip out case and contains etchings from inspections over the years.

Next is not a pocket watch. It is the last watch my great uncle wore everyday. He gave it to me when he retired as an engineer for Southern Railway, over 40 years ago.  It’s a Bulova Accutron Railroad 214.

Finally, a pocket watch that is not a railroad watch, but runs perfectly for its age.  It’s a Waltham Wm Ellery model, manufactured in 1864. Key wind and set.  Size 18, 11 jewels.  Case is a coin silver with an open face.
