Would like some info on Banner Pocket Watches.

I believe they are from the 1920s and are very low end. Do you have anything on them.

I have not heard of a Banner Watch Co. But Hamilton marked some of their movements The Banner.

I believe "Banner" might have been Swiss as I have seen one or two ads for them. Once again they were priced very low.

The Waltham "Banner" has been recorded on the 18s model 1877

Trenton made a Banner in 12 or 16s faux "3 finger' bridge" and Full Plate 18s

Hamilton sold "Banner" signed models 927, 928, 940, 941 and "Banner Special" (for Stein & Ellbogen Co, Chicago)

There are a number of listings for Banner watches (apparently Swiss, some 17-jewel) on E-bay.
