What makes the Springfield 526 unique: We are excited to bring you today’s watch of the day — the Springfield 526. Initially crafted by Illinois Watch Company in 1923, this sensational timepiece features a patinated cream-colored face with a matching sub-dial. The face of the watch also features blued diamond-kite hands that strikingly contrast the piece’s gold numerals and minute marks. To further highlight this watch’s antique face, we have paired it with our machined titanium case and topped it with a copper crown. As you turn the watch over, you can view the stunning inner workings of the timepiece’s machined nickel bridge plate through our case’s unique clear back. The watch’s caliber also showcases eye-catching gold-plated gears that rotate around 17 sumptuous jewels. Additionally, the movement features a pendant movement setting and going barrel. We have matched this captivating piece of history with our comfortable natural leather watch strap to complement the face’s hues.

Warner Brothers Pictures was formally established in the same year this watch was produced. Albert, Harry, Jack, and Samuel Warner had partnered together in the past to create the Duquesne Amusement & Supply Company in 1904 — a film exchange that distributed nickelodeons. However, the brothers made a monumental change from distributing films to producing films in 1924 when they purchased their first film studio on Sunset Boulevard. Warner Bros. is known for creating timeless films such as Casablanca and currently continues on the brother’s legacy today.
