Waltham 1177
Iterum builds new watches from vintage mechanical watch movements. This watch using a Waltham 1177 movement is available for purchase.
This is a Swiss made AS 1194 movement produced sold by Waltham Watch Co under their own caliber number 1177. The balance has shock protection. Cap jewels can be found on the top and bottom of the escape wheel and on the bottom of the third wheel. These movements were produced around 1945 and were commonly found in military watches.
