⌚ VINTAGE INGERSOLL YANKEE POCKET WATCH — USA, Circa 1940s A genuine piece of American watchmaking history! This Ingersoll Yankee open-face pocket watch dates to the mid-1940s based on its movement serial number (99527977), placing it in Ingersoll’s classic “dollar watch” production era — the company that made owning a watch affordable for everyday Americans. ⚙️ Condition: NON-WORKING — sold as-is for parts, repair, steampunk/repurposing, or display Winds smoothly but does not currently run — very likely just needs a standard cleaning/oiling service, as is common and expected in a movement this age. A great project piece for a watchmaker or hobbyist, or a beautiful display/collector’s item as-is. 🔎 Please review all photos closely as they are part of the description. Sold as-is, non-working, no returns due to the nature of antique/vintage mechanical items. #VintageTimepiece #SteampunkStyle #GrandmillenialCore
