That's a sharp looking Illinois Roger! Never seen that one before.That damaskeening is a little different,though.Mine is similar to a Ball watch, all the circular lines are concentric with just those around the center spotted.Illinois made so many different name watches, and so many grades it gets a little confusing.I've seen a lot of these that are like yours and mine, but all of them had the straight-line pattern.Thanks for posting it, and Merry Christmas!...Ted. | |||
Ted, this movement photo shows the circular damaskeening that you describe for your watch. | ||||

Thanks Bob!That's it.I don't have an Illinois book to look it up in, I guess there must be many more like mine out there,I've just never seen one before this. Thanks once again , Ted. | |||
