Donald HawesEquity Watch Co. (Waltham?)
Help! I picked up this Equity Watch Co., 7j, OF, Anton Molle, couldn't find it in book except for an Equity model listed under Waltham. Is this a Waltham? Also, does anyone know anything about Anton Molle? I presume he was a jewelry store owner somewhere.

Jim BielefeldtMost of the watch companies had other names they sold under. Kind of like the cars of today where one model may be sold with a different name and a little cosmetic change to the front or rear like more chrome. All of the equity watches I have seen are Waltham's, though I havent see every one.

Donald HawesThanks Andy. Apparently he was jeweler in Antigo, WI. And had a brother in the same business in Milwaukee.
