Hunting for Hunters ~
I have no idea what make the case is. Some had speculated it was a Ladd but the cross is different and from reading, all Ladd cases are marked on the rim, this is not.

One way or another, a GF case that I bought just because I like the look if it.

Always liked the style of the NY 18s with the balance smack dab in the middle.

Here's an 18-size hunter I picked up recently. It's in a respectable looking basket-style Dueber gold-filled case with a "flag" logo inside the back cover. . .

And under the hood . . . a 24-jewel Bunn Special Model 5, Variety 1, movement #1424621, circa 1898

Nice item Peter. Silver with multi-color gold inlays is a special favorite of mine.


Best Regards,

Compared to what you guys have put up on this page, the first page was downright pedestrian. Yeesh.
You're making it difficult for the rest of us. Beautiful timepieces all!

I say it's pretty nice. Haven't seen that pattern before. What size is it?

An unloved 12sz...

Will be interesting to see if these 12sz and smaller cases continue to increase rapidly in price because the crisp 16 and 18sz hunters are becoming extinct. The smaller sized Hunters make very classy gifts for loved ones during the holiday seasons - even the gals like them. Which, I think is awesome!!! Woot woot...

I have just a few hunters in my collection. This one is an Illinois Stuart Model 1, Serial No. 2548. Originally K/W and K/S but converted to P/W and L/S with an Abbott conversion. Housed in a Dueber box hinged G/F case. With original dial and hands.
