ALBERT H. POTTER & CO., GENEVA 1836- 1908

After a successful career in the United States, Albert Potter moved to Geneva in 1875, where he spent a number of years developing complicated pieces such as minute repeaters. He only produced time only watches. He never produced minute repeaters. He merchandised Swiss minute repeaters with his name on them. He spent his career inventing designs for watch movements, including a quarter repeater and a form of duplex escapement. In Geneva, he had the opportunity to create watches according to his previous designs and plans. An article from the Horological Journal of May 1882 quotes Potter as stating that he had made drawings and working models of fourteen different types of escapements. Potter's incredible craftsmanship made him one of the very few American makers respected by his peers in the Swiss watchmaking industry. His dedication to innovation and precision has rightfully earned him the reputation as one of the finest American watchmakers known today.

The high-grade movement is fitted with three of his patented inventions: the very thick watch plate; a safety mainspring barrel to protect the watch in the event of mainspring breakage; a pivoted detent escapement designed to reduce the angle through which the balance must move in order to unlock the escapement, reducing the risk of 'setting' or stopping in wear.

Albert H. Potter (1836-1908) was one of the greatest watchmakers of the second half of the 19th century and, together with Charles Fasoldt, the most renowned American watchmaker.

Born in upstate New York, he started his career as an apprentice with the watch manufacture Wood & Foley in Albany, NY. In 1855 Potter established his own business in New York City and designed and manufactured watches, apparently not more than around 35 examples, but all of very high quality. In 1875 Potter moved to Geneva where he produced the majority of his fine watches by implementing the ideas and inventions he had developed since the beginning of his career.

Between August and October 1875, he submitted five of his inventions to the US Patent office, including his trademark depicting the also patented compensation balance with auxiliary middle temperature error attachment, a safety barrel, the pivoted detent escapement and a watch plate design. An English patent, No. 2985, was also taken out in 1875 for the same inventions by a patent agent, W. R. Lake, on behalf of Albert Henry Potter of Chicago, Illinois, USA.

J.P. STEVENS & Co. J.P. STEVENS & BRO. J.P. STEVENS WATCH Co. Atlanta, Georgia 1882-1887 In mid-1881 J.P. Stevens bought part of the Springfield Watch co. of Massachusetts; and some unfinished watch components from E.F. Bowman. He set up his watchmaking firm above his jewelry store in Atlanta, Ga. And started to produce the Bowman unfinished watches which were 16 size and various 18 size watches, to which was added the “Stevens Patent Regulator.” This regulator is best described as a simple disc attached to the plate which has an eccentric groove cut for the arm of the regulator to move in. This regulator is a prominent feature of the J.P. Stevens plate with damascening. The pallets were equidistant locking and needed greater accuracy in manufacturing. About 50 of these watches were made. The pallet and fork are made of one-piece aluminum. The aluminum was combined with 1/10 copper and formed an exceedingly tough metal which will not rust or become magnetized. The lever of this watch is only one-third the weight of a steel lever. The aluminum lever affords the lease possible resistance for overcoming inertia in transmitting power from the escape wheel to the balance. In 1884, the company was turning out about ten watches a day at a price of $20 to $100 each. In the spring of 1887, the company failed. Only 169 true Stevens watches were made, but other watches carried the J.P. Stevens name.

ORT. The Order of Railroad Telegraphers (ORT) was a United States labor union established in the late nineteenth century to promote the interests of telegraph operators working for the railroads. A telegraphist, telegrapher, or telegraph operator is an operator who uses a telegraph key to send and receive the Morse code in order to communicate by land lines or radio.

Background and early years.

While early telegraph lines often ran alongside railroad tracks in the United States, it was not until 1851 that the telegraph was first used for train routing by Charles Minot, Superintendent of the Erie Railroad.[1] As the practice gained wider acceptance in the 1860s and 1870s, telegraphers would be stationed in individual depots along the railroad line in order to receive train orders from a centrally located dispatcher and report back on train movements; telegraphed train orders would be written out on paper and "handed up" to the crews of passing trains.

Nationalization of the railroads, 1917-1920[edit] With the entry of the U.S. into the first World War, the railroad and telegraph industries were placed under government control. On December 26, 1917, the United States Railroad Administration (USRA) took control of the railroads.

The ORT in the 1920s The early 1920s were the peak years for ORT membership; by 1922, the union boasted 78,000 members in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. Some railroads, including the Santa Fe, the Louisville and Nashville, and the Great Northern, maintained essentially the same agreements with the ORT that they had established during the years of government control.

My speculation: This 18s was created by a ORT Union Member in 1902. One guy (ORT Union member) with this request from Hamilton through his jeweler in 1902. This is the only one known to exist today. Who knows if more than one was created. Everybody thought it was a good idea when viewed and later by 1910 everybody wanted to wear a smaller 16 size, not the old "yesterday's news" 18s. So, when they figured out that it was a good idea to have Hamilton Ball put ORT on their dials by 1910 everyone just wanted a 16 size, when requested from a jeweler by a ORT Union member 1910-1920. Thats why you see only ORT on dials and movements on the 16s.

But it is important to note that Telegraphers represented 2% of Railroad employees. “Trainmen” represented all the rest. The Railroad employees liked what the Telegraphers did with these 18 sizes from Hamilton and Ball. Therefore, the 16 size with “ORT” on the dial and/or movement represented 98% of the Railroad employees or “Trainmen”. “ORT” initials represented “Order of Railroad Trainmen”. Not “Telegraphers”, making this earlier single 18 size “Telegraphers” so incredibly rare.

This is the only ORT Ball known to exist. Hamilton Ball 18 size, Open Face, 21 Jewels, lever set, "Official ORT Standard", "Patt'd June 30, 1896", and "Aug. 18, 1896", serial No. 208,891.

This bracelet is an original bracelet, which has been restored by Rolex in the mid 1980s. It was intended for all 1960s and early 1970s Rolex Models which required a 19mm fit. I.E. OYSTERDATE, DATE, PRECISION, AIR KING, and Oyster Perpetual, which required a 19mm fit. All of these models varied in height, which required the Rolex Dealership watchmakers to be Artful and creative when adjusted the end pieces to fit each model. This is very much unlike today's standardization of models today, Because of its's mint restored condition, this bracelet must be applied to a equally mint original Rolex Model head. When compared to worn out equivalent Rolex bracelets, the mint "Work of Art" restored condition of this bracelet and the adjustments often necessary to fit a head, often creates confusion of a viewer, which is not knowledgeable of Rolex's past (1960s Rolex).

The Reference is "76" and is located on each end link (President Model ref. No.). The "7206" No. you see on some bracelets simply date its production date to June 1972. Some had date marks and some did not. Most authorized dealerships did not want the Dates on the bracelets because customers thought that they were used when they became over a year old, and the dealers had difficulty selling them "as new". Bracelets were produced by Rolex in Europe and separately in the Americas. They were separately produced, and the European examples had the "Cameo" and the bracelets produced by Rolex for the U.S. and South America did not (.750 or 18k was sufficient).

AMERICAN WATCH CO. 1859 – 1873 Boston, Mass. Commonly referred to as “The Mother of all American Watch Companies”, this manufacturer was a international pioneer in watch production and accuracy. They were the first to gain independence from European watch providers in the New World. But more than that, they sought to provide a more accurate watch at a affordable price to the American Citizen. After beginning activity in Boston by the Boston Watch Co. 1853 – 1859, In January 1859, the Waltham Improvement Co. and the Appleton, Tracy & Co. merged to form the American Watch Company. In 1860, as Lincoln was elected president and the country was in Civil War, the American Watch Co. was faced with serious problems. The next year, business came to a standstill. There seemed to be little hope of finding a market for watches, and bankruptcy again seemed close at hand. At this point it was decided to cut expenditures to the lowest possible figure and keep the factory in operation.

American horology owes much to members of the Waltham Watch group such as Bacon, Church, Dennison, Fogg, Howard, Marsh, Webster, and Woerd, who contributed much to its development and success. In early 1861, the name “J. Watson” appeared on model 1857 (first run: nos. 23,601 to 24,300 total production 1200). The next model 1857 was the “R.E. Robbins” of which 2800 were made. The William Ellery marked: Em Ellery, (model 1857) was then introduced with the first serial number of 46,201. It was key wind and key set and has 7 to 15 jewels. A size 10 women’s watch was made in July of 1861 with the first serial numbers of 44,201. It was marked “Appleton, Tracy & Co gold balance, ky wind and key set, ¾ plate, 13 to 15 jewels. Some were marked “P.S. Bartlett” and a 15 jewel was marked “Appleton, Tracy & Co.” A special model, 10 size, serial numbers of 45,801 to 46,200, is extremely rare. By 1957, 35,000,000 watches were produced, and the factories closed forever.
