··Carpe horologium!Just got my first pocket watch:
According to the serial number, I believe it was made around 1909.
Here's my Waltham 1894 in 14k that I picked up for 100 bills around 20 years ago in an antique shop.
Incidentally, I just entered your watch into a query on the NAWCC-info.org site, and it called yours a model 1897. I'm not sure but perhaps the model number is the year in which they started production.
Even though I've had this watch for a while, I'm quite clueless about them!
