| Dial Details | "Olympia" Olympia Special U.S.A. was used as a trade name on pocket watch movements manufactured for Lapp & Flershem by Seth Thomas Watch Company. "Pocket Watch Database Research Note: All of the surviving examples from the second part of this run have been recorded as private label movements marked "Olympia Special U.S.A." and fitted with dials marked "Olympia." For this reason, it is likely the first 100 of the run were finished as standard Grade 260 movements while the remaining 100 were finished as private label movements for Lapp & Flershem." |
