Watch Description

What makes the Springfield 034 unique:  At the heart of this watch is the original movement manufactured by the Illinois Watch Co. in 1926. It is now housed in a one-of-a-kind Vortic case that has been carefully crafted for this dial. We put a lot of effort into these vintage movements, ensuring their accuracy and longevity, as well as the cases that hold them, and this watch is no exception. With luminous hands and numbers, a bronze case, a bronze crown, and a matching bezel, this watch showcases the unique beauty of its time period while seamlessly blending it with a modern look.

Movement Manufacturer Information

The movement inside of this watch was made by Illinois Watch Company. We call this model "The Springfield" because the company was located in Springfield, Illinois.

Originally called the Springfield Watch Company, Illinois came to Springfield, Illinois in 1869 while the "modern" watch industry was fairly new but highly promising. City officials felt that the addition of industry to the city of Springfield would be excellent for the city's growth. However, after a series of failures and re-brandings, the company had a slow start until 1903 when they decided to manufacture high-quality watches only. Eventually making some of the most beautiful watches of their time, the company sold to Hamilton in 1927. Hamilton continued producing watches under the Illinois name for some time, but the original Springfield factory no longer stands.
