Note: This particular pocket watch is lever setAnd
should be graded railroad grade
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Waltham serial lists do not explicitly designate this run as lever-set. However, if your watch is a lever-set Crescent St., it would have qualified for railroad service.

Serial Number 17154411 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I believe this pocket watch should be graded
railroad grade
Curator Response: A pendant-set watch manufactured in 1908 would not meet our requirements to classify the watch as railroad grade for this era.
