Photos currently unavailable, but I recently purchased two pocket watches. One Waltham Riverside and one IWC.
That was my first thought too.Is it the original band?
Absolutely beautiful! I've never seen that case style before - and the band goes with it perfectly. Is it the original band?
Dear Joseph
Thank you for your below email. Your watch was produced in 1967 and is fitted with a calibre 2542 PC.
Best regards

Thanks. It is 10K GF and a faux wood grain wrap made by Kreisler.Nice one RLK! What material is the band made from?
I have this Ross for quite a while but after wearing it lately, just wanted to make a pic of it and also maybe find out something about the previous owner.
Some collectors may not like engravings, but for me it gaves a vintage watch a "face" and makes me always wondering about who they were and what they would have thought about others someday owning their pieces even decades after they are gone. If my assumption is correct and Annawon Lodge means a mason lodge, someone in another board told me the W.M. could stand for Worshipful Master and I think about such a more important person should still exist something until today to learn who he was.
Hi James,
I don't quite understand what it was you were asking me. But here are the photographs for the two watches. In each instance, the Riverside is the watch on the RIGHT. The IWC is the watch on the LEFT.
A better shot of the Riverside's movement...
