The Springfield 344 is the 344th one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic’s “Springfield” line of the American Artisan Series. This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements.
What makes the Springfield Unique: Welcoming the Springfield 344! The silvery champagne tones of the ornate Illinois dial are balanced by the texture of the 3D raw titanium case. The knurled nickel crown mimics the dial’s grooved design, while the purple Merlot strap makes the blue numbers pop. The Autocrat movement made in 1923 was an engineering feat for its time, as the grooved lines all match up despite being produced separately. 1923 is also the same year the first Yankee Stadium opened its door in the Bronx, NYC.
