The other day I mentioned the case styles of the early Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Pocket watches. There were two different cases for the US made 1933 Ingersoll. The "Long" stem, which to set the hands, you pressed down on the winder knob and hold down as you turn. The "Short" stem, you set the hands by pulling the stem out and turned the knob. Both wind in the neutral position. These really don't reflect any difference for collector as to price and most consider the long stem as the earlier version. Hope you enjoy the little trivia facts about these. Thanks for taking the time to view them and have a great day.
