This is one of the most unusual Illinois pocket watches I have ever seen. The white heavy gold filled case has a unique "hand hammered" finish to it. Even more unique is the original dial done with a red stippled or crackled background. I have never seen this unusual dial on any pocket watch. The hands are original as well and done in blued steel. This watch has a 17 jewel movement which is beautifully finished as well. Illinois was one of Americas premier watch companies making high grade railroad watches which kept time to within 3 or 4 seconds a day. The entire watch is in excellent condition and it can be worn with jeans. While it is nearly 100 years old you can wear it all the time and counted on to get you there on time.
