Brand: Illinois. This Illinois Sangamo Special RR grade watch was made in about 1925. I believe it to be a 17 size and to be an unmarked 60 hour motor barrel. It is in it’s original case. The dial is silvered metal and I believe it could also be original as I’ve read that these Sangamo Specials could be ordered with such.

These dials are – I think – less common that enamel ones. The hands have some bends. The crystal is glass – it can come out when you open the front cover – though it doesn’t always. The movement is lever set. The watch winds, sets and runs well.

I will check the timekeeping the next day or so. The case has some wear to the 14k gold filling – most noticeable on the pendant and bow but also around some of the edges of the covers and case. The back cover has a very small mark or indent near the center. The hinges are good and the covers open and close as they should.

Running about 30sec fast a day so likely wants a clean/oil. The item “ILLINOIS SANGAMO SPECIAL 23 JEWEL 17S POCKET WATCH SANGAMO CASE UNMARKED 60HR” is in sale since Friday, March 03, 2017.

George Pasfield, John Whitfield Bunn, John Williams, and George N. Black, all of Springfield, Illinois. John Todd Stuart, former Congressman and early law partner of Abraham Lincoln, served as the first President of the new corporation.

Construction of a factory just outside Springfield began in December 1869.The first watches were completed in January 1872. These models were made by D. Currier and J.

Bigalow, and were 18 size, full plate, key wind. They were called the Stuart, Bunn, Miller,Currier, Hoyt and Mason.

Chief executive leadership of the corporation was assumed by Jacob Bunn, Sr., an Illinois industrialist, railroad financier, railroad reorganizer, wholesale grocer, commission merchant, newspaper publisher, land developer, coal operator, political advisor and financier, banker, and rope manufacturer.Under Jacob Bunn, Sr., corporate employment grew from 260 in 1879, to 400 in 1880.

In 1879, the corporation manufactured 33,285 watch movements. In 1880, the corporation manufactured 47,065 watch movements. In 1897 Jacob Bunn, Jr.

The Bunn family surname was used on Illinois’ most famous railroad watch grades, starting with the first 18-size, 15-jewel, adjusted Illinois Bunn movements introduced with serial number 201.The 18-size, 15-jewel, full plate, key wind, adjusted Millermovements were also advertised as having “a good reputation with Railroad Men”.
