And the flip side.

PS, I figured there may be some Railroaders
on here. I'm the only one in the family that
did not work for the KCS RR.

Thanks guys, Dueber is the maker. No, I
don't carry gold filled, (except for my
AT&Co slight brass). About all gold fills
are display and coin are the carry watches.

One display is just display and another
with nice common brands. I call the second display my spill over.

Those are my watches collected the first
go round. From that group are my carry
watches.

I collect English 1800-1860
American 63 -1912

Bryan it is beautiful! John Dueber was a casemaker who went on to buy Hampden when the big makers tried to dictate his prices for cases. I collect Hampdens and am particularly admire the Dueber cases as examples of excellent workmanship. Should you run across a Dueber case marked Railway they are the closest fitting and always of solid workmanship regardless of the material.
