BOXED SET ALONG WITH BEING PROFESSIONALLY "DETAIL" SERVICED WITH COA:
DISNEY 1934 "MICKEY MOUSE POCKET WATCH" BY INGERSOLL.
THE ENTIRE SET IS GUARANTEED TO BE ALL ORIGINAL EXCEPT FOR A NEWER REPLACED CRYSTAL AS CONFIRMED IN THE CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY(COA) REFERENCED ABOVE.
THE "SHORT STEM" POCKET WATCH IS AS CLOSE TO PERFECT AS I HAVE SEEN IN QUITE SOME TIME!!
THIS POCKET WATCH IS THE SECOND VERSION RELEASED BY DISNEY IN 1934 AND KNOWN AS THE "SHORT STEM". THE "SHORT STEM" VERSION DWARFED THE NUMBER OF "LONG STEM" ORIGINAL VERSIONS THAT WERE PRODUCED.
THE ORIGINAL 1934 VERSION CAME WITH A LONG STEM.
MR. DISNEY DECIDED TO MAKE THE CHANGE DUE TO THE DIFFICULTY OF SETTING THE TIME ON THE LONG STEM VERSION.
INCISED ON THE BACK OF THE WATCH IS AN IMAGE OF MICKEY ALONG WITH THE TEXT:
INGERSOLL
MICKEY MOUSE
MORE AND MORE OF THESE VERY SPECIAL POCKET WATCHES ARE BEING LISTED AND SOLD AT LOWER PRICES WHICH MAY BE DO TO PARTS NOT BEING AUTHENTIC, DEFECTIVE HAIRSPRINGS WHICH CAUSES BAD TIMEKEEPING CAPABILITY, 1934 DIAL FACES PUT ON 1935 OR LATER WATCHES, LOOSE TIMEKEEPING ARMS THAT ARE NOT ATTACHED TO THE BASE PROPERLY, INCORRECT ORIGINAL LEATHER FOB BANDS, NON ORIGINAL CROWNS, ETC., ETC.. A COA PROVIDED BY A "VINTAGE" WATCH SPECIALIST HAS VALUE THAT CAN LAST FOR YEARS AS YOU ENJOY YOUR INVESTMENT.
I RECENTLY HAD THE WATCH "DETAIL" SERVICED BY A HIGHLY RESPECTED VINTAGE WATCHMAKER(5 INVESTMENT) .
THE SERVICING VINTAGE WATCHMAKER HAS PROVIDED A SIGNED CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY WHICH WILL GO TO THE NEW OWNER OF THIS WONDERFUL POCKET WATCH.
I TESTED THE POCKET WATCH FOR A 17 HOUR RUN AND THE CORRECT TIME WAS ONLY OFF BY BEING 4 MINUTES SLOW(WELL WITHIN PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS BY A LONG SHOT).
THERE IS NO GUARANTEE AS TO HOW LONG THAT SAME ACCURACY CAN BE SUSTAINED OVER MORE TIME.
DETAIL SERVICE INCLUDES, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, COMPLETELY DISMANTLING OF ALL THE INTERNAL MOVEMENT PARTS BEFORE PLACING THEM INTO AN ULTRASOUND MACHINE FOR THOROUGH CLEANING(MOST VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS SIMPLY PUT THE ENTIRE INTERNAL MOVEMENT INTO THE ULTRASOUND CLEANER WHICH ONLY REMOVES ABOUT 60% OF THE OLD GUMMED UP OIL VERSUS . 100%).
THE WATCH MOVEMENT IS THEN PUT ALL BACK TOGETHER.
THERE ARE ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS INCLUDED IN THE DETAIL SERVICING, BUT THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT FEATURE THAT THIS WATCH COMES WITH AND MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN THE WORKING CAPABILITY OF THE POCKET WATCH.
PLEASE NOTE: A vintage collectible timepiece will not keep as accurate a time as a modern quartz wristwatch or cellular telephone and nor should it be expected to. If total accuracy is what you desire or need, then there are many quartz watches available at a fraction of the cost.
ACCORDING TO MOST "CREDENTIALED" VINTAGE WATCHMAKERS, ONE OF THESE VINTAGE MECHANICAL WATCHES PRODUCING ACCURATE TIMEKEEPING WITHIN 30 TO 45 MINUTES OVER A 24 HOUR PERIOD IS WITHIN AN ACCEPTABLE RANGE OF EXPECTATION.
IF EVER NECESSARY, THE NEW OWNER CAN ADJUST THE SLIDING REGULATOR BAR INSIDE THE WATCH TO SLOW DOWN OR SPEED UP THE RUNNING SPEED IF DESIRED. YOU JUST SIMPLY POP THE BACK-PLATE OFF AND THE REGULATOR BAR IS RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU.
THE FOB IS IN OVERALL EXCELLENT CONDITION AND STILL EXHIBITS MOST OF THE ORIGINAL BLACK HAND PAINTED COLOR FILL(SCARCE).
THE "BLACK" LEATHER STRAP IS A MODERN REPRODUCTION OF THE ORIGINAL.
THE 3 PIECE BOX SET IS IN OVERALL VERY GOOD CONDITION WITH MINOR COSMETIC AND CONSTRUCTION DISTRACTIONS(PLEASE SEE PHOTOS FOR BEST EVALUATION OF CONDITION) .
PLEASE VIEW MY ENCLOSED PHOTO REFERENCES FOR THE BEST TOOL TO USE IN DETERMINING THE OVERALL QUALITY OF THE PIECES THAT MAKE UP THIS VERY SPECIAL POCKET WATCH SET FOR YOURSELF.
A PICTURE IS STILL WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS................................
