Fairly rare small size 0s lady's 4 jewel pocket or fob watch by Columbia Watch Company of Waltham, Massachusetts. This company was started in 1896, and went out of business in 1900, so its products are somewhat scarce. This is a particularly pretty watch with a detailed border design of swirls, and a handsomely engraved back with an escutcheon in the center. The movement is gilded, and is not currently working. The face is particularly nice: enameled, with Roman numerals, and a seconds dial, with very fine blued steel hands. Size: 1 3/8 inches across. Processing and shipping within the continental U.S. $30.00 plus 1.5% replacement cost insurance. Discounts given on combined lot shipping.

Condition

Externally this is a beautiful watch, in superb condition, but it is not in working condition.
