What makes the Springfield 101 unique:
This Springfield 101 showcases a dial rich with character, its speckled patina and worn numerals telling the story of nearly a century of use since its creation in 1926. The blued kite hands glide elegantly across the ornate dial, which features an intricate pattern and bold numerals. Every mark and faded detail serves as a testament to this piece’s history and enduring craftsmanship.
Inside, this watch houses a 21-jewel manual-wind movement produced by the Illinois Watch Company. The movement proudly bears the “A. Lincoln” designation, a mark reserved for high-grade movements known for precision and reliability. Named in honor of Abraham Lincoln, these movements were crafted to meet exacting standards, reflecting the quality and prestige of early 20th-century American watchmaking.
Encased in a machined stainless steel case with a matching stainless steel back, this piece offers durability and a sleek, timeless aesthetic. The robust knurled crown completes the look, providing a functional yet stylish accent. Paired with a classic black leather strap, the Springfield 101 is a harmonious blend of historical significance and modern refinement—a true celebration of American horological heritage.
