This authentic mid-century Ingraham “Biltmore” pocket watch is a classic example of an American “dollar watch.” It features a mechanical wind-up movement with manual top-crown setting controls. The cream-colored analog dial is detailed with bold black Arabic numerals, matching hands, and an independent lower sub-dial tracking seconds.
Dial Markings: Main face is printed with “BILTMORE” near the 12 o’clock position. The lower sub-dial features the classic stylized “INGRAHAM” logo and is stamped “U.S.A.” at the absolute base.
Movement: Mechanical manual-wind (tested and fully functional).
Era: Mid-Century Modern (Circa 1950s / 1960s).
Condition: Winds and works. The piece shows authentic character and honest age-appropriate wear. The chrome-plated case exhibits fine surface scratching, and the textured outer bezel rim shows minor metal pitting and finish wear. The polished case back has a footprint of legacy adhesive residue or finish loss. The crystal has faint scuffs but remains clear and highly legible.
