The Springfield 292 (47mm)

The Springfield 292 is the 292nd one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic's "Springfield" line of the American Artisan Series. This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements. What makes the Springfield 292 Unique: We don’t see grand feu enamel dials on 12s Illinois movements very often and we almost never see them in perfect condition. You’ll see this particular dial has a fracture near 4 o’clock and is a great example of the patina that we see on these white dials. Made in 1914, this is an older movement then what we typically see in the 12s. Most similar movements from Illinois seem to be made in the 20’s. 1914 2657066 https://player.vimeo.com/video/441159791
