Period
vintage
Howard and Co. of Boston, features a substantial hunter case crafted from 14k gold. The watch is designed with a hunter configuration, meaning the movement and white dial are protected by a hinged metal cover.
The watch utilizes a mechanical, pendant-set movement and maintains time. The dial is white and includes a subsidiary seconds dial positioned at the six o'clock mark. The exterior of the gold case shows fine guilloché detailing in the center and exhibits minor signs of wear and toning consistent with its vintage nature. With a diameter of 55mm, a thickness of 17mm, and a total weight of 140g, this piece is a notable example of American horological craftsmanship.
The watch remains in its original E. Howard casing and presents as a robust, high-quality instrument, representing the standard of precision and aesthetic appeal characteristic of the E. Howard company's output.
