Howard pocket watch with an 895 serial number. http://www.awco.org/Seminar2002/HowardTheme/h03.htm My dad passed away 35 years ago so I have no idea where he got it from. It still runs and keeps decent time based on the last 24 hrs. The back cover plate screws off so I'm guessing that it is not original. My pictures are too big to upload so these are the photobucket links (3): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v626/darkstorm762/6c464912.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v626/darkstorm762/f8ddf830.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v626/darkstorm762/4e33c28f.jpg You have a ballpark of what this would sell for? I haven't decided if I'm going to sell it or not. Thanks.   darkstorm762 Unregistered guest Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!)
