Hi All, Can anyone give me an idea what age this watch would be please, and were they manufactured in large numbers? I dug it out of one of my 'bits' boxes yesterday. It's seen a bit of life and expect it's just junk, but curious anyway. The only type I've found similar is that in Shugart's book showing the suspected 'Hopalong fake'. The movement is a basic pin pallet type and runs quite well. The bezel and back are thin brass covers, black lacquered, the case band either chrome or nickel on brass, and the dial a one piece disc the full width of the movement. The movement is stamped "The E'Ingraham Company' - Bristol Conn. USA". It'll be going on Ebay soon and would like to be reasonably accurate about it in my description. Best regards to all, John Woolsey | |||

John, On Ingraham watches, the date of mfg is stamped on the back plate, ie 4-60 (April 1960). Tom | ||||

Tom, many thanks for that tip, never knew. This one's 1-38, so looks like Jan 1938? I'm assuming these type watches are really cheap junk and not worth bothering with, but I suppose someone somewhere will love it Best regards John | ||||
