Another John C. Dueber from 1896. This is a Rare, Early Two-Tone Movement. 

A HT2L-A [Hunter-Two Tone Gold Damasked-Model 2-Lever Set-Adjusted]. 17 Jewel, 18 Size. 


Double-Sunk, Roman Numeral, Dial, w/ Thin Spade Hands [probably replaced as most J.C. Dueber's had Moon Hands]. 

Currently in a Fahy's Oresilver [Nickel] Open-face, Case. Watch is Running. The Dueber-Hampden Factory seems to have been playing around w/ applying Gold to their movements around the Mid-1890's before they settled down to producing these Two-Tone Models systematically. Which is most likely why I keep finding these unrecorded examples like the 1893, Grade 80, from the earlier posting.
