Available for purchase is a historically significant Ball Official Standard Trainmaster railroad wristwatch. This 25-jewel automatic model represents the pinnacle of vintage railroad-approved timekeeping, blending Swiss precision with iconic American railway heritage.
Movement: High-grade Swiss BTA 2632 automatic movement. Adjusted to 5 positions for superior accuracy. It is in excellent running condition and keeps strong time.
Case: 10K Yellow Gold Filled (stamped 10KT G.F.) in remarkable condition for its age. Features the original screw-back design and the critical internal steel dust cover (shown in photos) to protect the movement. Case, case cover and crystal have minor surface scratches and in overall good condition.
Aesthetics: High-visibility white "Railroad" dial with bold Arabic numerals. Paired with a brand-new 17mm genuine leather strap.
To ensure full transparency: the watch runs and sets perfectly; however, the hacking feature (which stops the seconds hand when the crown is pulled) is currently non-functional. This is a common and straightforward adjustment for this caliber but is reflected in this competitive asking price.
Movement service history is unknown, but the watch runs and keeps time. However, long-term accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
