Description: Antique Illinois Big 18s Hunter/Open Face Conversion Pocket Watch This antique Illinois pocket watch is 18 size (case diameter, 58 mm). The movement is a hunting case, probably with 15 jewels although unmarked, and has the micrometer regulator. The dial is a conversion dial to make a hunter into an open face watch, so the seconds bit is at 3 instead of 6. The case is nickel silver with an inlaid elk on the back, and shows plenty of wear to the elk as you can see. Made in about 1900. My standard disclaimer for every watch I sell: "This watch runs and keeps reasonable time: within 5 minutes or LESS per day. I do not know the history of this watch, so it may need to be serviced. This watch will have either a glass crystal in good condition or an unbreakable acrylic crystal unless otherwise stated." Sorry, this is NOT a "Make Offer" listing. I will not consider or reply to any offers. Thanks! Terms for All Buyers: The images are part of the description. Please read the description carefully and view all images BEFORE you bid. Shipping by US Mail ONLY! Combined shipping? Yes, I normally can ship multiple purchases together, and when that results in a savings, I normally refund the excess to the buyer. In a few cases, the combined shipping doesn't result in a cost savings, particularly for shipments outside the US. If you buy multiple items, please let me know so I can ship together and save my time and your money! Returns: I have offered unconditional returns for over 35 years. However, due to a recent increase in the number of returns for completely bogus reasons, plus returns in which the buyer damages and then returns goods, I no longer offer unconditional returns through eBay. Even so, if you have a legitimate problem with an item you receive from me, please let me know WITHIN THREE DAYS, and I WILL resolve the problem. Buyers who falsely claim "Item not as described" on a return through eBay will be reported!
