Made in 1908 by Hampden of Canton, Ohio, this Dueber Grand Pocket Watch features a 12-size open face design and a 17-jewel pendant-set movement. With its nickel finish and vintage elegance, this timepiece offers collectors a well-balanced blend of affordability, style, and function. While the watch runs well, it would benefit from routine servicing and minor cosmetic attention—making it an ideal restoration project or starter piece for a growing collection.

Movement: Runs pretty well, but timing has not been checked. Must be serviced by a competent watchmaker for daily use.
Case: About 45mm (1-3/4 inches) wide, this chrome-plated base case has wear but is in decent shape overall. The plastic crystal has scratches and scuffs and currently falls out—needs to be glued back in or replaced.
Dial: The dial has some blemishes as seen in photos. The matching hands are in good shape but misaligned.
