Burlington watches were produced by Illinois in their factory in Springfield, Illinois and the company was headquartered in Chicago, Illinois.* This Burlington watch, crafted in Springfield, Illinois, was completed in 1921. It operates on a sophisticated 21-jewel movement, manufactured from 1913 to 1929 by the Illinois Watch Company in partnership with Burlington. The movement is in outstanding condition and has been uniquely refinished with blue accents, achieved by thermally heating each component by hand. Similarly, the hands have been restored using the same heat treatment technique. The jewel settings have been restored to their initial brilliant golden hue, while the watch plates have been meticulously restored to their original silver appearance. The metal dial showcases prominent and attractive Roman numerals. Because this is a Burlington, the plate under the balance is engraved with “Burlington Watch Co. Chicago”. This timepiece is cased in a newly designed silver-colored wristwatch conversion case, ensuring comfortable wear with adjustable lugs for easy winding and setting while also providing a more tailored fit for wrists of various sizes. The case, equipped with front, back, and crown gaskets, offers water resistance up to 50 meters, although it is advisable to remove the watch before engaging in water activities. Having undergone thorough servicing, this timepiece is ready for your upcoming adventures. **Price**: $1,599 OBO, Free shipping via UPS 2nd Day Air **Shipping**: Free to buyers in the USA.
