What makes the Boston 434 unique: Today, we are excited to present the Boston 434 — originally manufactured by the American Waltham Watch Company. This royal-grade watch features a classic watch dial, with sharp black numerals and crimson minute indicators on the outer ring. The sub-dial blends flawlessly into the main dial, and the blue hands bring sharp contrast to the rest of the piece. We are amazed at how the watch’s integrity has been preserved throughout the past century — other than some slight fading on the bottom of the dial, the watch looks like it was built yesterday. Our Diamond Like Coating Case protects this watch further from natural wear with its durable and scratch-resistant coating. Through the clear display case, you can see the gold-plated gears tick flawlessly in this 17 jewel piece. Subtle machined patterns dance across the bridge plate, along with the proud ROYAL engraving. Lastly, our Cordovan Black strap brings unity to this piece, matching our DLC case and the crisp black numerals on the dial. This watch was originally produced in Waltham Massachusetts, in 1902 — the same year “The Wizard of Oz” musical was released, premiering at the Chicago Grand Opera House. American composer Paul Tietjens wrote the music, while most of the script came directly from the original book by L. Frank Baum.
