Description

it seem that the collection has continued from last time. As it turns out, i found 3 more pocket watches for my collection. so enough lollygagging, let me give the information of all 3 watches.



for more information on the previous 6 pocket watches, here it is -

my pocket watch collection - wave 8

--------------------------



no.34



door - hogwarts express' firebox door with it's no.5972 and the hogwarts castle crest above it.

color - black

bought - eBay.com

cost - $20.00

builder - accutime watch corp

year i got it - 2023

Power - battery


No.34 was a pocket watch i been looking for a while, it was a very hard one to find online since it was a discontinued merchandise from hot topic, but i finally found it. it's fun to get more pocket watches, specially one that's decorated after a locomotive. it also became the fourth black pocket watch in the lineup and the first of the firebox pocket watch. lets see if we can get more of them.



 coincidentally, the hogwarts express pocket watch is my number 34 pocket watch, which if you're a harry potter fan, would know the reference. coincidentally it's also part of my wave 9 collection picture.



Wave 9 = platform 9

No.34 = 3/4



platform 9 3/4



There you have it, it's very funny XD.

---------------------------



no.35



door - none

color - gray

bought - Frank's Vintage Shop in Puerto Rico Bayamon

cost - $15.00

builder - Westclox Pocket Ben.

year i got it - 2023

Power - wind up


no.35 doesn't have a bow on top, which reminds me of my first pocket watch, that's missing it's crown. hopefully i can fix it, as this is the first wind up pocket watch i ever collected in the country I'm from. this is also the second westclox pocket watch in my collection and i was happy the seller called me a natural born collector, cause he said it's rare to meet pocket watch collectors.

---------------------------



no.36



door - none

color - gray

bought - Frank's Vintage Shop in Puerto Rico Bayamon

cost - $15.00

builder - St. Regis Trade Mark.

year i got it - 2023

Power - wind up


i bought no.36 along with no.35, now it didn't look as grand as the other, but i felt wrong to leave it behind, so i got it. i tried to clean it's glass, but the color didn't went away. but i love it because it's weird colors on the glass makes it stand out more and that it had a rough past, but finally found a place where it can be taken care of.

------------------------------------------



but let's see what the next pocket watch would be. could be highly decorated, could be simple or could be a commemorative watch. so let's see.
