So any information would help. Thanks everyone

      I think this is awesome, especially your story.
      It amazes me how many people put their possessions up and actually sell them with no effort towards the history of it.

      Maybe to me, that's where the importance is, in the history. Good luck on finding yours, It's out there...

      Thanks shareurpassion, I'm not looking to sale at all just trying to find some information about it.

      Right...I wouldn't sell it either. I was just saying that it would be nice if more people selling would give more info in their descriptions, especially since items on ebay are usually the first things that pop up as you search :)

      What does it say on the very bottom of the dial. I think I can make out "Waterbury" but I'm not sure. I don't see the clock in my references but the dial should give you some information. Good luck.

      Yes that is what it is , but the only thing I can find is the patient blue prints ,

      Suggestion, there are many wonderful people here and some are specialists in the watch and clock world. Seek out one of their posts and inquire with them. I hope that helps :)
