W764

International Watch Co pocket watch that was made in New Jersey around 1904. It is a dollar type watch. This is not the Swiss company that made high grade watches.  This is a fairly rare watch. It runs and keeps time, but it did stop once after 12 hours, but I gave it a shake and it started running again [and kept running].

This is an unusual New Haven. Westclox made lots of watches with the enameled bezel, but I don't think New Haven made many. The crystal has yellowed which gives the dial a yellowed look, but the dial is actually still nice and white.  I am selling it as-is because I did not have it serviced. .

W762

Vintage New Haven Motor pocket watch that was made in the USA in 1919.  The movement seems to be a transitional between the earlier back set movements and the later stem set.  The stud is on the movement for back setting, so this was probably an early stem wind movement adapted from the earlier movement.

W763 Lot of 4 vintage windup pocket watches.  They are all the common "dollar" type.  There are 1 Ingersoll [made in England] and 3 New Haven.   They were all made in the USA in the 20s, 30s and 40s.  The models are:

Ingersoll -  Triumph. 
New Haven-  Motor [2] and 1 with no model designation
3 of the watches are push to set models.

They are all running and keeping fairly good time. They may need to be regulated, but they were within a few minutes after running them for 24 hours. They all have crowns, bows and crystals. The crystals may be yellowed or have minor scratches, but none are cracked.  The cases may need to be polished. 
I am selling it as-is because I did not have it serviced.
