Aside from some Military stuff, I have these very impressive watches . . Top view, the Ingraham "Seven Seas" with it's indisputable "Chronometer" grade movement always guaranteed to still be running 10 hours after it's last wind. Bottom view, a 1919 vintage Illinois 16s, 21 Jewel "Burlington Watch Co"., with a signed Burlington Case that has a nice WWI vintage "Battlewagon" steaming across the back cover! ![]() | |||
|
Those are great! I've read some of the Burlington advertising stating that they did some heavy marketing to the Navy, so it makes sense to have this engraving on the watch. | ||||
