G'Day,
Does anyone have, or know where I can find information on the Waltham 17J RAILROADER. This is the one with RAILROADER on the movement.
Thanks for your time and attention......Joe......

Thanks Steven for mentioning our "Find or Search" feature! Smile

I find this a value asset on our Discussion Site and by refining your search a little more using "Waltham Railroader" I found some more images with "Railroader" on the movement.

Thanks again Steven!

Debbie

Joe, I remember seeing some info on them in Roy Ehrhardt's pocket watch encyclopedia volume 1, in the 92 model section.Those are a rare watch, you're lucky to have one! Merry Christmas, Ted.

I once owned a 16s Waltham model 1888 17J open face with this same damaskeening, and the movement was marked OREGON SHORT LINE. Makes me wonder what else is out there.

There was also one they called Roadmaster, I wonder if these were private label.
