Case Details 8-29-18, As seen on E-Bay. Sold for 113.50 +Frt. To me, this is as original of a pocket watch as it gets. The Double Sunk Dial with the makers name of (John C. Duber) name on the dial. The case was made with a special holder for a picture. And of course you place your sweet hearts photo. Possibly I'm just a romantic. But based on the pocket wear of this watch. I would imagine the owner of this watch loved the watch as much as he loved his sweet heart. The watch also shows sign's of deterioration around all the jewels and jewel screws. Its such a classic i just had to document on Data Base.

To me the dial is rare enough. It was was on the main reasons I documented this watch. Many watched of this type had the dials replaced. And the original double sunk dial were discarded. Tha is why I placed the dial in the movement position.
