Early LMS Railway Watch By Record, c.1923

This is a genuine and early example of a London, Midland & Scottish railway pocket watch. Created in 1923, the LMS was an amalgamation of smaller rail networks that served virtually the length of Great Britain.Probably cleaned daily, this pocket watch displays its heritage on the back of the hemetic case. Made by the Record Watch Co., their robust 'negative-set' industrial grade movement is working well. The authentic bevel-edged crystal has the usual edge chips and surface scratches associated with a working man's watch, but it's far too nice to replace.A collector-grade example, good enough to use, although it has not been serviced.
