<p>[QUOTE="buyingtime777, post: 284836, member: 188"]Another thing to take into consideration as you gather info on this watch is that the maker of the case and the maker of the movement really have nothing to do with each other. Before 1910 or so movements and cases were actually sold separately and one chose a case at the time of purchase. After that time watches began to sell already already cased but still the maker of the movement ordered their cases from another company generally and the cases bear a different serial number and usually a different makers name then the watch movement.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit-unless of course you are talking about much older watches constructed one at a time completely by hand.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
