Many features of this watch look typically Swiss, including the shape of some of the bridges. Most telling, to me, is the manner of holding the two dial feet with notched screws from the back. This is very typical of a Swiss watch. Beyond that, it looks like a very nice nickel movement with damasceening a little nicer than what I see on most Swiss movements. It must have been imported and either ordered with the custom engraving for the New York retailer, or engraved here. | |||

I'm about 99% certain that movement is a Longines product. I have one that's very similar, although at the moment, I have no idea where it is. =================== Steve Maddox President, NAWCC Chapter #62 North Little Rock, Arkansas IHC Charter Member 49 | |||
