Waltham Traveler Movement

To celebrate the birth of our son, Austin William Kevin. Alison, and Austin have given me a lovely Waltham Traveler pocket watch. The Waltham Watch Company is quite important, as it was the first company to mass produce pocket watches in America, Massachusetts to be more specific, starting in ~1852. Its Movement is Seven Jewel and has the serial number of 17788223, which I’ve dated to 1908-1909. I’ve been unable to find a database or source to date the Dennison case, which has the serial number of 988510.

It’s a lovely piece, and I’m looking forward to tracking down an adequate chain to keep it on. I’m of the opinion that gold jewelry does not suit men, wedding rings and pocket watches are two exceptions.

I’ve probably been doing too much reading on various Steampunk sites, and so I thought I’d try some retro looking compositions. Here’s the first one, called “Meta-Mathematics”.
