Review on ⌚ GWC14103S Gotham Silver Tone Mechanical Railroad Watch by David Monaco

Revainrating 1 out of 5

They do not specify the necessary elements required to qualify as a "railway guard. "

I don't see any indication of how many positions this watch is set to (railway clocks should have at least 5 positions). What about temperature control and isochronism? Do they have a micrometer regulator? It looks like it's a stem clock, not a lever. A pocket watch had to be approved by at least one railroad company to be a railroad watch. specific rule book) The watch must be: Made in the USA, size 18 or 16, fitted with 17 or more jewels, temperature compensated, set to 5 positions, lever adjustment rated at +/- 30 seconds per week, fitted with: double pulley, patented regulator, steel escapement, plain white dial (but "silvered" dials were allowed between 1910 and 1920) with: black Arabic numerals every minute is outlined open dial configuration with winding stem at 12 o'clock
