- Dial and Visual Presentation
- The pocket watch features an analog white enamel dial signed "A. W. Co. WALTHAM" directly below the 12 o'clock position. The dial layout includes black Roman numeral hour markers, an outer black railroad minute track, blued steel hands, and a subsidiary seconds dial located at the 6 o'clock position.

- Case Construction and Markings
- The watch is housed in a 40 mm round gold-filled hunter case described by the seller as featuring engraved details and a double-hinged back, with the caseback type listed as snap. Internal markings on the case back are recorded by the seller as "C.W.C.C.O. Trade Mark 45601". Because internal surfaces and case markings are not visible in the front photograph, these markings and construction details are drawn entirely from the dealer listing.
- Reported Movement and Production Data
- The internal mechanism is not visible in the listing photograph. According to the seller, the timepiece is powered by a manual-winding mechanical movement made by the Waltham Watch Co. in the United States, specified as Model 1873, Grade Wm. Ellery, size 6s, with 11 jewels and a lever-set function. The movement serial number is listed as 2769758, with a recorded run quantity of 3,000 units and an attributed production year of 1885. These technical specifications reflect dealer cataloging rather than direct observation.
