Illinois Watch Company

 

Dating back to 1869, the Illinois Watch Company produced some of the finest and most collectable pieces in American Horology.  Founded in Springfield, Illinois, the Illinois Watch Company used more names on their movements than any other firm.  In the beginning the name Illinois Springfield Watch Company was used until 1879.  Springfield Illinois Watch Company was adopted until 1885. And finally, until the Hamilton Watch Company purchased the company in 1927, the company was merely the Illinois Watch Company.
