Rockford Iroquois 17‑Jewel Hunting Case Pocket Watch – Freshly Serviced – 12‑Size

Rockford 12‑Size Iroquois Pocket Watch – 17 Jewels – Clean & Well‑Running

This attractive Rockford Iroquois 17‑Jewel Hunting Case Pocket Watch is a clean, well‑running example of Rockford’s quality mid‑grade production—freshly serviced and ready for its next owner. The watch features a classic 12‑size movement, making it an ideal gentleman’s dress pocket watch with a slimmer, more refined profile than the larger railroad grades.

The movement is a 17‑jewel Rockford Iroquois, known for its reliability, smooth operation, and excellent build quality. Recently serviced, it runs well and presents clean plates with no harsh marks or signs of abuse—exactly what collectors look for in a properly maintained vintage timepiece.

Housed in a handsome 20‑year yellow gold‑filled hunting case, the watch retains a bright finish and strong detail. The case opens and closes properly, and the crystal is clear, offering an unobstructed view of the dial. The watch retains its original hands, which pair nicely with the dial and complete the authentic period look.

The dial itself is attractive, with a clean layout and classic Arabic numerals. A nicer dial would easily elevate this piece into the $250+ value range, but as it stands, it remains a charming and very presentable example of Rockford craftsmanship.

Overall, this is a well‑running, freshly serviced Rockford Iroquois hunting case pocket watch—a great choice for collectors, enthusiasts of American watchmaking, or anyone looking for a dependable vintage timepiece with character and style.
