The Chicago 392 is the 392nd one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic's "Chicago" line of the American Artisan Series. This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements.
What makes the Chicago 392 Unique: This ornate gold filigree double sunk dial is nestled into our 3D bronzed case and is adorned with a round nickel crown. With Moss straps, a wood patterned filigree dial, and an engraved golden flower on the movement, this is the perfect watch for nature lovers! The Elgin movement was produced in 1923, which happens to be the same year the battleship USS Colorado was commissioned in New York Harbor.
