I've been getting into "Animated" style Character watches as of late. And this is one of the new purchases. It a Swiss 1 Jewel movement with an Animated Arm and Ball, giving the effect of the Ball being thrown by the Baseball Player. Note the crown at the 2 o'clock, That tells me this was manufactured around the early to mid 1970's. Thanks for looking and hope you enjoy.
