HISTORY & DESIGN
The history and details behind this watch.
AN5740 Railroad
A quietly distinctive watch for those who appreciate railway pocket-watch design.
Wind it by hand in pocket-watch use; let the automatic movement wind on the wrist. This is a mechanical model made to let you feel the passage of time.
The design pays homage to a British watch from 1904 and uses Roman numerals. Watch accuracy became a matter of life and death not only in war, but earlier on the railways.
As Britain’s railway network expanded, companies used their own head-office times. Major interchange stations displayed several companies’ times, creating confusion for passengers changing trains. In the United States, single-track operations also led to collisions and loss of life. A shared standard of time was needed to reduce accidents.
Our original account records that, by 1848, railway companies had agreed on a standard based on Greenwich Mean Time, and people increasingly set their watches to it.
To respect the original design, the dial is luminous but the hands are not.
