AMERICAN WATCH CO. 1859 – 1873 Boston, Mass.

Commonly referred to as “The Mother of all American Watch Companies”, this manufacturer was a international pioneer in watch production and accuracy. They were the first to gain independence from European watch providers in the New World. But more than that, they sought to provide a more accurate watch at a affordable price to the American Citizen. After beginning activity in Boston by the Boston Watch Co. 1853 – 1859, In January 1859, the Waltham Improvement Co. and the Appleton, Tracy & Co. merged to form the American Watch Company. In 1860, as Lincoln was elected president and the country was in Civil War, the American Watch Co. was faced with serious problems. The next year, business came to a standstill. There seemed to be little hope of finding a market for watches, and bankruptcy again seemed close at hand. At this point it was decided to cut expenditures to the lowest possible figure and keep the factory in operation.

American horology owes much to members of the Waltham Watch group such as Bacon, Church, Dennison, Fogg, Howard, Marsh, Webster, and Woerd, who contributed much to its development and success. In early 1861, the name “J. Watson” appeared on model 1857 (first run: nos. 23,601 to 24,300 total production 1200).

The example presented here is an pre-CIVIL WAR all-original AMERICAN Watch Co. P.S. Bartlett, 1857 Model Solid steel Balance, Full plate gilt, Serial Number 31,361 (Circa: Spring 1860). White porcelain no sunk dial marked AMERICAN WATCH Co. in a arc. Distraction free, no hairlines. Original 3oz. silver key wind hunting case engine turned crested and free of any personalization. Remarkable original condition! Marked: AM. WATCH Co./WALTHAM, Mass./FF231 on inside of front lid.
