E. Howard Question "Click" to Login or Register

Sorry Buster, the case is a C.W.C.Co. with the star/crescent & Trade Mark. Serial#1022295. The cuvette is ringed with "Howard Watch Co. Boston"

The dial is fine Arabic numbers, D/S and the minute markers are in blue as well as the 5 minute interval markers.
The dial simply has "Howard" in script.

Didn't know I was on page 2 and thought response did not post- good grief.

A very nice watch Rick !! I was under the impression that the "hooked finger" bridges started on the following run, but there it is, at least one in that run of 200 had the "hooked finger" bridges !!

Buster, your reference library, along with others, is nothing short of impressive and the consideration demonstrated sharing information is an absolute bonus. Thank you.

The learning curve is steep.

Regards
Rick

Thanks Rick ! I enjoy helping members out on our little site with "stored/saved" information from the real experts. I've been a "student" my entire life and finally had to start saving it to a hard drive since my memory banks were overrun.

Sometimes it takes me a while to find it with my antiquated system. When needed I gladly share what I've learned with others, from others, from failures, from victories, from past trading, from setting up "shop" at different marts, [where I met some of you], from seminars & work shops attended, from working in retail store front antique, coin, watches type operations that my parents owned as a young man, and from listening to hours of "the good old days" and then picking the brains of those really old geezers who were spinning the tales of these antiquities with real time events, when I was a young gun. I had much rather share it "on-line" so all can benefit rather than one on one via PM's. I never expect or want a cent for my "relay" of researched information, since it's not my published works, it's just a sharing of intel for general knowledge and to promote goodwill among men.

Sometimes those "old guys" would look at me down their nose and over the top of their spectacles and remark; "Boy I've forgot more than you will ever know." Really ?? Well they meant that as a little bit of history is always being lost in translations, and now I'm just one of those "old guys" that's been there, done that, however, every once in a while I did get a T-Shirt Wink

regards,
bb
