What makes the Boston 415 unique: For today’s Watch of the Day we bring you this beautiful watch from the Waltham Watch Company, our Boston 415. We love the look of this dial, with gold-colored hour indicators instead of using traditional numerals. The shape of the hands matches this look perfectly and makes for a gorgeous, vintage appearance. Some slight wear marks and aging give this watch a nice amount of character, topped off with this very clean gold-plated crown. A sandblasted titanium case and natural style strap bring some softness to the overall design and really sets this watch apart. As we turn this watch over to reveal the movement that powers it, we are mesmerized by the craftsmanship and fine details that went into the manufacturing of this watch. A rare Riverside movement with 21 jewels, including a jeweled mainspring wheel with custom engraving. Waltham only produced 6,000 of these movements in this run, a very low run of these very high-end watches. Gold-plated gears and a brass balance keep everything on track, hiding beneath this large build plate that is secured with stainless steel hardware and press-fit jewel settings. This watch was originally produced by the Waltham Watch Company in Waltham, Massachusetts in 1935. In January of this year, Amelia Earhart completed a successful solo flight from Hawaii to California. The trip was 2,408 miles and she became the first person to complete such a milestone.
