No case or dial. Pivot on the 4th wheel is broken. Balance is surprisingly good. The upper 3rd jewel has been replaced by a bushing. I was probably looking in the wrong place but I didn't find it in Shugart's. TIA for any help.

I know this is not an Elgin. It appears to be an early Waltham.

It will generate a table with various information about your movement.

Steven,

Thanks alot! That must mean it's a A.P. Model 1860, 15j (changed the message title from "Elgin" to "Waltham"). No wonder I couldn't find it, wrong company!

Best regards,

Frank "407" Kusumoto

Frank,

The trick to these is finding a dial and and even harder one is to find a 16 size keywind case.. Wink

Appleton Tracy was a high grade watch at the time..1863 or so...
