Although this stunning watch boasts many features to write home about, the most special and luxurious feature is its highly unique, awe-inspiring solid sterling silver dial. This dial features blued-steel heavy moon watch hands, a glimmering center, and helpful subdial with the inscription “Master.” The outer ring of the dial is truly magnificent — it features an 18k gold background and golden numerals. We encased this watch within our lightweight Machined Titanium case, and topped it off with a gold-plated crown that complements the piece’s affluent details. On the back of the watch, you can see its 405-grade open-face movement with a Going barrel, nickel finish, and pendant setting. The movement also features a center bridge plate that contains the engraving “Capitol” as well as 17 jewels and eye-catching gold-plated gears. Finally, we tied the piece together with our comfortable, artisan-designed Natural leather watch strap. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Illinois Watch Company initially released this breathtaking pocket watch in Springfield, Illinois, in 1923 — the same year that American explorer Roy Chapman Andrews and his exploration party became the first people to discover non-avian dinosaur eggs. This landmark discovery that the group uncovered at the Flaming Cliffs of Mongolia served as a critical advancement in the study of dinosaurs and their reproduction. Initially, the group thought the eggs belonged to Protoceratops — a type of ceratopsian — but in 1995, paleontologists determined that the eggs actually belonged to an Oviraptor, which is a theropod. \u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Vortic Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44183149019437,"sku":null,"price":3200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1710\/0345\/products\/2022-12-15-9999-17.jpg?v=1671495996","url":"https:\/\/vorticwatches.mom\/products\/the-springfield-564-46mm","provider":"Vortic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
