The Boston 183 is the 183 one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic's "Boston 183" 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 Boston 183 Unique: This is an almost perfect example of the Waltham Maximus. Waltham manufactured about 400 pieces like this in 1903. The dial is an authentic Maximus dial and to our knowledge, is original to the piece. The Maximus dial has very specific features like the minute marker track around the outside and the red 5 minute markers. The grand feu enamel on this particular piece is in almost perfect condition which is extremely rare in something over 117 years old. We used our 3Dprinted titanium case for this watch to create a beautiful clash of old and new!
