Manufacturing of Waltham watches took place at their facility in Waltham, Massachusetts.* From circa 1898 and absolutely breathtaking—we always get excited when coming across a piece from two centuries ago in this condition. Waltham originally manufactured this piece in Waltham, Massachusetts 🇺🇸. We received it non-running due to a broken mainspring and solidified oil from who knows when. After a full restoration and lots of TLC, it is ready to be enjoyed once again—this time on a wrist. Conversion comes in at 44 mm but wears more like a modern day 40. We do all of this work under one roof in our shop in Little Rock, Arkansas, and I am lucky enough to run it with my wife. From our family to yours, one historic American timepiece at a time. **Price**: $2,149, But negotiable—especially to someone with an interest getting into vintage American watchmaking. **Case**: 316L stainless (surgical grade steel), 44 mm diameter, 47 mm lug to lug (52 mm with crown), 13 mm height, front/back sapphire crystals that are AR coated. Front, back, and crown gaskets provide 50 meters of water resistance although it is recommended to take the piece off before water activities. **Shipping**: UPS 2nd Day Air free in the USA. International shipping via DHL Express (\~$100), which takes approximately one week. **Payment Method**: PayPal, PayPal Credit, Venmo, Apple Pay, CashApp, Wise, Afterpay, Affirm, Klarna, and All Major Credit Cards **Service History**: The watch was serviced in 2025 and comes with a 1-year service warranty. The watch was inspected and cleaned. The watch was re-assembled and oiled using high-grade Swiss oil. Time keeping will vary depending on position. **About us**: We are a small batch, custom watch restoration company located in Central Arkansas USA. Our mission is to preserve and enhance vintage and antique watches. Everything we work on is done in house completely by hand. Each timepiece we produce is one-of-a-kind.
