⏱️✨ EXTREMELY RARE ANTIQUE INGERSOLL “YANKEE” POCKET WATCH – COMPLETE WITH ORIGINAL WARRANTY PAPERWORK & CHAIN ✨⏱️


This is an exceptionally beautiful and very early antique Ingersoll “Yankee” pocket watch, and it is honestly one of the nicest examples you will ever find for its age. What makes this piece truly special is that it still retains the original factory warranty paperwork inside the case, something that is almost never seen surviving with these watches. The original chain is also included.


The dial is clearly marked “INGERSOLL YANKEE”, with bold Arabic numerals and a classic subsidiary seconds dial at 6 o’clock. The dial shows natural, even age toning that collectors love, with no harsh damage. The hands are original in style and match the period perfectly. The crystal is very clean and attractive, especially impressive for a watch of this age.


Inside, the movement is clearly stamped ROBT. H. INGERSOLL & BRO., NEW YORK, along with patent markings, confirming authentic early Ingersoll production. The original paper warranty insert reads that the watch was guaranteed for one year and serviced or exchanged for 25¢, and it is addressed to Robt. H. Ingersoll & Bro., 315–4th Ave., New York — a fantastic piece of American horological history.


📜 Important historical note:

Ingersoll “Yankee” watches date to the early 1900s (circa 1908–1920) and were famous for being affordable, reliable timepieces that helped put watches into the hands of everyday Americans. Finding one this clean, complete, and still running is extremely uncommon.
