The movement is signed Elgin Nat’l Watch Co. and bears serial number 4,995,097, identifying it as an 18 Size Grade 27 B.W. Raymond movement manufactured in 1893. The watch features a white enamel Roman numeral dial with subsidiary seconds register, blued steel hands, and a finely engraved nickel movement signed B.W. Raymond. The 14-karat gold hunter case is richly decorated with floral and aesthetic-period ornamentation, including a hanging framed landscape motif to one cover and a decorative floral cartouche to the reverse. The interior case is marked “Warranted 14K” and retains a patented dust cover marked “Pat. April 25, 1882.” The case is fitted with a desirable box hinge, a construction feature commonly associated with higher-grade nineteenth-century watch cases. The movement is a 15-jewel, lever-set railroad-grade model adjusted to position, temperature, and isochronism.
