Hi all,
I am not a real fan of these smaller size watches, and am wondering if there would be enough interest in this watch if I put it here. Just some helpful suggestions, and approx. worth of this little gem.
14K Gold case.

It seems to run, do not have any history on it, could likely use a good cleaning. Cartouche is not engraved, opens 90 degrees, bow stiff. No marks on the case, slight abrasions near where you open the movement cover.
The spot on the dial is something(fluff) under, but on the crystal.
Info please,
Bill

Sure it will sell. It's a nice looking watch and the case makes it suitable for either gender.

Run an IHC185 auction and put a reserve for the gold value+ and watch it sell.

Bill,

I agree with Buster, put it in the IHC Auctions and let her rip! That's a pretty watch, Debbie and I love collecting them and Debbie often wears one on a gold chain.

Please post jewel-count and movement number.

Buster what is the gold value approx. ? I have no idea and do not as a rule get a lot of it.
Lindell,
I'm sorry I always post ser# and generally jeweling, I guess I was just so enamored with the gold. Ser# 16682037, and it has 15 jewels. Mdl 1907.
Thanks,
Bill

I will have to guess...... I think there will be about 17 grams of 14K.

Should be about $350 in gold, at today's prices.
