This elegant 1926 Waltham wristwatch showcases the refined cushion case style popular during the Roaring Twenties—a transitional era when wristwatches were rapidly replacing pocket watches as the timekeeping tool of choice. Its warm gold-filled case frames a beautifully aged dial with a small sub-seconds register at 6 o’clock, exuding the understated sophistication of the period.
Inside beats the Waltham Grade No. 365 movement, part of the company’s Model 1907 series. Produced in a run of just 6,000 units in this configuration, the 15-jewel, 3/0-size movement features a hunting case orientation, nickel finish, and classic 3/4 plate construction. Pendant-set and carefully engineered, this caliber reflects Waltham’s commitment to precision and durability.
Founded in Waltham, Massachusetts, the American Waltham Watch Company was a global leader in industrialized watchmaking, pioneering interchangeable parts and mass-production methods that brought high-quality timepieces to a wider audience. By the mid-1920s, Waltham was blending its pocket watch expertise with modern wristwatch designs, creating pieces that were both stylish and reliable.
Freshly serviced and ready to wear, this watch offers not only vintage charm but also a tangible link to an important chapter in American horological history—perfect for collectors of early wristwatches or enthusiasts of Art Deco-era design.
