Regina Pocket Watch?? "Click" to Login or Register 
posted
An 18 size PW in a swing out sterling OF case.
-serial # 3105185 circa 1906 or so and the serial number does not appear to be correspond to any North American manufacturers from the Data Base site
- dial reads:
REGINA
S.W GIDLEY
DUNCAN, BC
-due to the fact the serial number does not indicate a North American manufacturer and "Regina" is on the dial is it a reasonable assumption to call it a Regina PW?

Any information or opinion appreciated.

movement reads - Gidley's Special and 15 jewels.
S.W. Gidley of Duncan does not appear to be a jeweler but an individual of the Masonic Temple Lodge in Duncan in the early 1900's

The Reginas I've seen are all Omega production. Mostly the plate layout is unique to Regina, but there are some three finger bridge models with either Regina and Omega marka.

This Regina appears to have plates of the same shape.

Thanks Lorne, that looks pretty much bang on to the one I was looking at. We'll call it a Regina.
