Eric WellsUS Watch Co. of Waltham Acid Etched 16s
I want to share these photos of this product of the "other" Waltham. It was the beneficiary of a recent top-quality restoration. Although I have seen references to 18s acid etched movements from this maker, this is only the second 16s I have seen. Seven jewels, lever set. Serial #135671 dates it to about 1892.

Bila WirriganwaltersThese are nice watches Eric, stunning designs on the movement when in good nick. I sold an open face in an 18 size not to long ago, also still have an 18s, 16s and a 6s in my collection all in the hunter variety like yours.
Cheers
