Gordon CollingwoodWaltham Deck Watch Database
Hi Lindell
I have a friend who has a number of Waltham Navy Deck watches from WWII. They are 16s OF. From the Waltham serial number database they are all Model 1908. However of the 13 pws the database shows:
8 as grade 1609 - 9j
4 as grade 1617 - 17j
1 as grade 1621 - 21j.
I have personally checked them all and the lot are labelled 9j on their movements and counting the jewels, they are all 9j. All but two are called Premier.
Below is a list of serial numbers and their database details (movement details):
30706014 - 21j (9j)
30468206 - 17j (Premier, 9j)
30812847 - 17j (Premier, 9j)
30465963 - 17j (Premier, 9j)
30816879 - 17j (Premier, 9j)
30897121 - 9j (Premier, 9j)
30896990 - 9j (Premier, 9j)
31233681 - 9j (Premier, 9j)
30894849 - 9j (Premier, 9j)
31534560 - 9j (9j)
31234608 - 9j (Premier, 9j)
