Watch is WORKING and winding, but to set the hands requires a great deal of force to pull the winder out to the hand setting mode.
This is a very rare American pocket watch made by the Dudley Watch Co.
The movement has been cut away to form Masonic symbols and is model 2 variant with a beautiful two tone case
The watch is stem wound / stem set. The winder can be a little stiff on the final few winds and coupled with quite a sharp finish on the winding wheels make this watch unsuitable for every day use as it would simply hurt your fingers too much. This is reflected in the lower price for a watch of this type

Case – the movement comes in its original 18K white gold filled open face case, which has a snap on bezel and hinged back cover.

Dial – the silvered dial has a full set of blue steel hands and is signed “Dudley”. The dial is in 95% mint condition – light marks only

The winder can be a little stiff on the final few winds and coupled with quite a sharp finish on the winding wheels make this watch unsuitable for every day use as it would simply hurt your fingers too much.
