This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"optional-custom-description\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat makes the Springfield 343 Unique: \u003c\/strong\u003eThis is a fantastic every day wear Conversation Piece. The dial features a fairly rare \"Sterling\" mark under the Illinois brand. The patina on the dial is stunning. We typically refer to markings like that as \"freckles.\" Everyone here in the shop tends to like freckles! The movement, originally manufactured in 1918, is an Autocrat model which is another one of our favorites. This particular movement really shows its age with some dark patina around the balance wheel. We put the tobacco strap on this watch to help bring out the freckles and other patina throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"mvmnt-year-initial\"\u003e3284785\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"mvmnt-serial-initial\"\u003e1918\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"vimeo-url-initial\"\u003ehttps:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/454883923\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vortic Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32593938939982,"sku":null,"price":2600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1710\/0345\/products\/Springfield3432020-09-03-999_1-7.jpg?v=1614296816","url":"https:\/\/vorticwatches.mom\/products\/the-springfield-343-46mm","provider":"Vortic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
