Thank you!

Beautiful mechanism, from when there was no TV, Internet or cell phones and people would concentrate in what they were doing.

I like the regulator (?) at the upper left, slow/fast.

Here is the face of this watch:

It's a 1936 Hamilton Railroad watch. I got it at the flea market for $15. It's worth between $200-$400. Wish every flea market buy worked out this well!

I'll raise you a Hamilton pocket watch. Mine is 1913 vintage if I recall.
