The Lancaster Manual Wind // 031 // c.1914 Renewal
Product Description
The Lancaster is a 100% Made in America pocket watch conversion. This watch makes a statement, tells a story, and is completely one-of-a-kind. This antique, 16 size (51mm case), Hamilton Watch Company pocket watch movement (timekeeping portion) was originally made in 1914 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This particular watch features a decorative, 17 jewel, adjusted, 974 grade movement. The movement has been professionally restored and is keeping time like the day it was made. The Patent Pending case is 3D printed from stainless steel and infiltrated with molten bronze before a “Medieval Pewter" patina was applied. Each case is engraved with a unique serial number, this watch being serial #031.
The custom made, nickel plated crown is at 12 o'clock, also known as the “openface” pocket watch style. All watches have open, exhibition backs. Both the front and back crystals are made from Corning Gorilla Glass with an oleophobic (fingerprint resistant) coating. The dial is original, white, single sunk enamel with black painted numerals, original blued steel hands, and red highlighted minute markers. All bands are 22mm and handcrafted in the United Stated using American Leather. All Vortic Watch Co watches come with an 18 month, limited lifetime warranty (visit vorticwatches.com to learn more). Vortic also offers service plans to maintain and preserve the movements over the life of the watch. Each watch comes in Vortic’s Artisan Series salvaged walnut watch box adorned with hand-cut leather straps and custom brass hardware.
