Kevin HoffmanHampden 23j 104
I have been chasing the 16s 23j models for some time and have the worst luck on the auctions . This is a 23j 16size Hampden 104 from about 1915 , most of the 23j 16s Hampdens are pretty scarce ,this one is a model 5 has a total of about 4300 made , making it the highest production of the 16s 23j . Enjoy and feel free to comment

Theodore J. Brown Sr.Nice 104 Kevin! Looks like a Dueber case.I've been on the hunt for one of those too, they are out of my league though. I have the model 5 19J Railway, it has the same fancy gold motor barrel setting as the 104. Congrats on nailing a nice one, those are every bit as good as any other make RR watch. Ted.
