Antique 1908 Illinois Pocket Watch Grade 17211 Jewel Hunter Case w/ GF Chain - 1908 Illinois 11 Jewel Pocket Watch + GF Chain Grade 172 For Repair or Parts

Antique 1908 Illinois Pocket Watch Grade 17211 Jewel Hunter Case w/ GF Chain - 1908 Illinois 11 Jewel Pocket Watch + GF Chain Grade 172 For Repair or Parts

This listing is for the Antique 1908 Illinois Pocket Watch Grade 17211 Jewel Hunter Case w/ GF Chain. This antique pocket watch is a classic example of American craftsmanship, featuring a mechanical Grade 172 movement with 11 jewels (Serial #2148407). Housed in an ornate gold-filled hunter case with elaborate floral engravings and a blank monogram shield, the watch presents beautifully as a historical display piece. It comes paired with a matching gold-filled vest chain that shows a consistent vintage patina. Measuring approximately 150mm in total length from the bow to the end of the chain, this is a substantial 16-size "gentleman’s" model from the late Victorian/Edwardian era. Regarding its mechanical condition, the watch is currently non-functioning and appears to be jammed or seized. When wound, there is no audible ticking and the internal gears do not engage, likely due to decades of dried lubricants or a potential mainspring issue. While the exterior is in excellent cosmetic shape with no major dents, the movement will require a professional overhaul or repair to return to working order. This set is being offered as-is, making it an ideal restoration project for a watchmaker or a fine addition to a collection of Springfield-made timepieces. Unique Find!!!
