Second "Menlo Park" in my collection. First being a Open Face Model ON3L-A & this the Hunter Case Model, HN4L-A. Model 4 being the Last Hunter Model, replacing the Model 2. Manufactured in 1900.
17 Jewel, Adjusted, w/ 'Star' patent regulator.


Watch has incorrect Dial & Hands, but I intend to replace them.
The final pick for a new dial. A Canadian 24 Hr., Single Sunk Dial. This Dial was made for the Model 4's as it has no hole in one foot for a pin [as the Model 2's do]. Excellent, near Mint, Dial.
Movement mounted in a Unique Aluminum Dueber Case. This Case must have been made around the time the price Aluminum came down to around the price of Silver or Gold due to the new Bauxite Extraction Process invented in the late 1890's.  This would put it in the same time frame as the Movement.
