Cool! A solid gold case.

No model or caliber.

This is what I get for not looking at pocket watches often enough.

I'm sorry for the bad info. I had assumed that the pocket watches also follow the wristwatch convention of the style and movement caliber numbers within the case backs. I went and checked my one and only contemporaneous Gruen pocket watch, also in a Wadsworth case. It too is not marked with the style or caliber.

Learn something new every day....

Regardless, the caliber info above should be correct. Anyone else want to validate this?

All I know is based on hard work & writing by others. I can only aspire to augment this body of knowledge. If I am wrong it is because of my own failings. -me
