Slartibartfast Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 This is my Keystone Standard Watch Co specimen. (Not to be confused with Keystone Watch Case Co) It is a 9ct hand engraved case front and back. The Keystone Standard Watch Company was started by Abram Bitner with the purchase of the factory and production of the Lancaster Watch Company in 1886. Almost 9000 Lancaster watch movements had been completed but not sold when Bitner assumed control of the company, and these were sold by Keystone Standard under the Lancaster name. Keystone continued to produce a relatively small number or watches, about 48,000 in total, until their sale to the Hamilton Watch Company in 1891. This watch is one of the Lancaster watches. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
