Just a little beauty a chap brought to my door today. I'd never seen the Wadsworth case mark "permanent" before. I did a bit of research and found it about where I expected though , between 25 year guaranteed and solid gold. Anyways a beauty mint condition case with a 2-6-2 (thanks to Mark's sharp eyes) Prairie steam locomotive on the back,serial # 20408365 ,1917 I think. It seems almost unused with no screw marks ,no other casing marks,and just one service mark between "permanent" and the serial number which my old eyes at first did not see,LOL, Big Grin

Tom - you have yourself a very nice, almost pristine watch there! I especially like that dial.
Congratulations on a great buy!
