Offering a seldom seen all original early, 20th century Rose Watch Co trench watch. Both case and movement are signed RoseWCo, which is uncommon, as most of their early watches were cased in US made cases. Sterling Silver hinged case is marked , Sterling Silver, .935, RoseWCo, Swiss, 7519 A, along with various watchmakers marks. Case and shrapnel guard are in very good shape with no dings or dents. Movement is marked 15JLS-3ADJ, ROSEWCo, SWISS. Movement is very clean and runs, but service history is unknown. Comes on an old brown leather strap that I think compliments the watch well.
A little bit of history:
In 1912 Charles-Auguste and Jules-Edouard at the urging of their American partner Henry Freund (New York City Jeweler & Importer) decided to use the trade name "ROSE WATCH COMPANY" on all watch movements imported into the USA. In 1922, Heuer stopped producing the "Rose" watch brand. So, for approximately 10 years the Ed Heuer & Co. used the name Rose Watch Co. on all the watches sold in the U.S.A. So when you see a early watch with the movement signed "ROSE W. Co." it was manufactured by Ed Heuer & Co.
Price is $495 shipped in the US.
Will ship International for an additional $30.
Paypal preferred but will consider other payment methods.
