    THE
    INGERSOLL MICKEY MOUSE CHICAGO WORLD'S FAIR 1933 #1
    WRISTWATCH - running with just a couple winds, and keeping time the next day accurately.
    Hands-down the most coveted and rare Mickey Mouse watch of all time, a "True 1933 Ingersoll Mickey Mouse Chicago World's Fair Wristwatch", the first Mickey watch ever made! This is the very watch that sold for a record-breaking ,100 at Christies Auction House about 6 years ago. The leather strap is still as soft as a well-used leather jacket, Easily my rarest, best Mickey watch ever. Keep your eye out for this little beauty, I have not seen any  in "similar" condition in the last 2 years.
    My Disneyana pride and joy, from my personal collection. I have given this a couple half turns, and it begins running accurately instantly.  I would it about 4 half turns, and was keeping accurate time the following evening.  It winds a bit tight, careful to not overwind this timepiece.  The band on it, I believe is not original, although seems to the same age as watch, and us for a very thin adult wrist or a child's wrist which is what they were made for.
    Check out the dial, super clean for a 1933, the black part of Mickey is SOLID JET BLACK, if it looks lighter in photos, it is simply the camera flash, additionally there RED and YELLOW hands are solid and VERY BRIGHT, NO FADING AT ALL.  The background of watch is the typical soft ivory white, looks deeper than it is, again due to photos, as a light ivory color, And the VERY COOL UNIQUE Spinning Seconds dial in 6 position turns perfectly and again, the 3 little MICKEYS are all in great condition, ADDITIONALLY THE TYPE ON LEFT SIDE OF MICKEY
    ("MICKEY MOUSE INGERSOLL ©")
    ON DIAL IS NOT FADED OR MISSING as it seems to be in photos, as it is CLEAN with NOTHING MISSING.
    How much is the original Mickey Mouse watch worth?Its monetary
    value
    can be quite high, however. The
    Original Mickey Mouse
    wristwatch sold for about in 1933, while one was sold in 2005 for a reported ,500 and another was sold in late 2010 for ,500.
