Offered here is a handsome Waltham Model 845 railroad‑grade pocket watch—size 18, 21 jewels, and freshly serviced for accurate, dependable timekeeping. The winding action is smooth and confident, reflecting the care this watch has received throughout its life. Manufactured in 1908 as part of a limited production run of just 800, this example has been exceptionally well preserved. The movement is bright and spotless, with clean, rust‑free plates and crisp factory markings: “AWW Co., Waltham, Mass., ‘845’, 21 Jewels, Adjusted.” It’s fine ruby and sapphire jewels remain vibrant, underscoring the high‑grade engineering Waltham reserved for its railroad‑approved models.
Housed in a substantial heavy Silverine swing‑out case, the watch presents with impressive presence and durability. The double‑sunk Arabic dial is remarkably clean, showing only a tiny “flea bite” near the 4‑hour mark—minor and purely cosmetic. A true working artifact of the American railroad era, this Model 845 is both a reliable timekeeper and a distinguished addition to any collection. It also makes a meaningful gift for anyone who appreciates craftsmanship and history. If you have any questions or would like additional photos or details, feel free to ask.
