    Made in the U.S.A. by the Ingraham Watch Company in Bristol, Conn, this size 16s, BILTMORE model has a bright, shiny case and back that surrounds a pristine white dial complimented by bold black stick hands, black Arabic numbers, a black outer chapter, and sub-second dial @ 6 o'clock, all under a bright, clear new glass crystal.

    It sets and winds as it should, runs strong, and keeps very good time.
