<p>[QUOTE=&quot;buyingtime777, post: 294831, member: 188&quot;]We have personally had and sold 3 outrageous silver pocket watch cases. They were 18 size. We have had a 7,8, and a 10 oz silver case. Add in almost to 2 oz for the movement and you could kill someone swinging those. A quality early silver hunter case is 4 oz which is still substantial . I have heard of 12 oz cases even. That is really taking the &quot;woodburner&quot; to the extreme. BTW the railroad watches continued to be 18 size. They were cased in thinner open face cases bringing the size down from the big silver hunter cases though and I believe the movements became thinner as the craft advanced.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
