Illinois Electric Railroad Standard . . .


Here's my latest "street car" watch, it's a 21-jewel Illinois Model 9, Grade 806, pendant wind/lever set, adjusted 3 positions, movement #4559750, circa 1925.

Ed,
A very nice addition to your collection. Does the movement say electric railroad standard?

A fine looking watch. I know Illinois, Hamilton and Hampden marketed electric or trolley watches but did the other makers market to the electric rail people specifically?
