1904 St. Louis World Fair Watch
We visited the St. Louis History Museum this last weekend. They had on display this 18s commemorative watch and fob from the 1904 Worlds Fair. I believe the surface is porcelain. I had to take the photo through the glass of the display case so it is a little fuzzy. I have no idea who made it or when. It appears to be an early digital. I thought others might like to see it.

That is a beautiful and seemingly rare watch/fob combination. Thanks for sharing Ernie!

Great watch, Ernie, and a good conversation-starter.

Really nice Ernie. Do you think it could be a high end commemorative dollar watch by Waterbury or New England?

Most of the watches I've seen were the regular dollar watches of that period, and not the digital type. Most also were made by Ingersoll it seems like the one I've posted below.
