Dueber-Hampden
Military Service
1905
This 1905 Dueber-Hampden wristwatch is a special antique timepiece- a military service watch in great physical and mechanical condition!
The USA-made manual wind movement is caliber grade Diadem, size 3/0s, featuring 15 jewels, a Hunting movement configuration and lever setting.
At 118 years old, this wristwatch still has the original white dial with a light patina, bold Arabic Numerals and minute track, and the sub-second located at the 6 o'clock position. The original blued-steel hour and minute hands are spade-shaped, and the sub-second blued-steel hand is tipped with an arrow of the same color/material. The 31.5 mm diameter case is stainless steel and base metal, featuring elegant scroll-work engraving on the sides and lugs.
It is finished with a vintage brown two-piece leather strap with silver buckle.
This Dueber-Hampden military-service wristwatch is an attractive piece of history, keeping excellent time, and will make a superb addition to the watch-lover's collection.

Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today's watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don't see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today's offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size.
We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust lighting when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that.
The condition is pre-owned.
The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended.
Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have.
It will be carefully packed.
