Crescent Extra screw front case.Original Howard fitted wooden case which contains the Howard Watch License and Du Bois High Grade Jewelry, New York business card from where the watch was originally purchased.Movement number 1171xxx which dates the watch to 1913/4. To set the hands to the time, unscrew the bezel (front of the case), pull out the lever on edge of dial at 1 and turn the winder. When finished, push lever back in and screw the front back on taking care not to cross-thread. Viewing the movement is not recommended as it is a fiddly job but here is how to do it. Pull the winder out one click to release movement, (it is stiff and the collar underneath the winder does not move so avoid trying to pull that at the same time), unscrew the front and lever out the movement at the six position - it is hinged at the 12 position. There is a slot here for your thumb nail but take care not to bump into the second hand. The case has some scuff marks but is overall in very good condition.The dial (no hairlines), hands and case are is great condition.There are no personal inscriptions.The movement is also in great condition. It has been serviced and is working well.Movement guaranteed for 12 months. Approximate dimensions: watch diameter 50mm, box 11cm x 9cm, total weight 208.3 grams.A really high quality watch from the early 20th Century.
