About This Watch

Collectible early 20th century American made pocket watch. Illinois is a highly respected firm & is one of the superior watch maker in the United States. However, their fortune went down in the Great Depression in the 1920s & the company was purchased by Hamilton in 1927. This is one of the fine example in beautiful original condition. No major dents or scratches.
