Ooooh... I like this one! This is a 16 size Waltham Model #1888, "Riverside" grade with 15 jewels. It's stem wind and pendant set, and is housed in a nicely engraved, triple-hinged gold-filled case. What's so nice about it, though, is the movement, which has some of the nicest two-tone damasceening I have ever seen, together with gold jewel settings, gold screws, a gold regulator, and even a gold center wheel. All in all, a VERY nice watch! The serial number is 9137696, which dates it to right about 1900.
