    Hello Fellow Collectors. The other day CW patron rniederman asked about a "Ball Watch Company" RailRoad pocket watch.
    There were a couple manufactures that produced these for the Ball Company and the dial and movements were stamped "Ball Watch Company, Cincinnati Ohio" Waltham and Hamilton watches are the better known. They were produced in 17, 19, 21 and 23 jewel counts, all on Sapphire platelets. Here's the breakdown of my 19 jewel model:
    Grade: Official Standard
    Manufacturer: Ball - Waltham
    Movement Serial Number: B262763
    Grade: Official Standard
    Model: 1899
    Estimated Production Year: 1918
    Size: 16s
    Jewels: 19j
    Movement Configuration: Open face
    Movement Finish: Nickel
    Movement Setting: Lever
    Plate: 3/4 Plate
    Adjusted: Yes
    Adjusted # of Positions: 5
    Adjusted to Temperature: Yes
    Railroad Grade: Yes
    Thanks for looking,
    Kerry
