Railway or railroad watches were specialised and accurate timepieces once used to ensure the safe operation of trains. Regulations regarding the watches used by critical personnel on the railroads (engineer, conductor, switch yard controllers, etc.) were specified almost from the beginning of widespread railroad use in the 1850s and 1860s, and these watches had a number of minimum requirements including open faced dials, maximum variation of 30 seconds per week, a lever used to set the time, minimum dial diameter and bold, large numerals.
circa 1915, the signed circular white dial, 38mm diameter, with black Arabic numerals, an inner ring of red Arabic 24 hour indicators and blued spade hands, the outer with gold coloured foliate embellishments and visible balance at 6 o'clock, mechanical crown wind 8 day movement with mainspring and barrel across the full width of the movement, pumpkin shaped winder and hand setting button at 11 o'clock, square base metal folding case with push-button release, stamped 'BREVET BRIDGE 33606' and numbered 147, 50 x 50mm, 109g grossIn 1889 Arthur Graizely bought a patent for a watch movement capable of running for 15 days without winding, founded the firm 'Graizely Frères' and started production.In fact, the movement only ran for about 7 days and not 15, and so was given the name 'Hebdomas' (pronounced 'heb-doh-mass') from the Latin meaning the number 7, a week, 7 days or the seventh day.The success of these watches in the 1900s was unbelievable, and several unique pieces are still to be found in private collections all over the world. In 1915 the company was reorganised as Schild & Cie. and the patents were transferred from Graizely. Schild continued to produce 8 day pocket watches in a wide variety of shapes and designs, including an unusual variety with a folding stand - this example.All Hebdomas watches are manufactured entirely by hand. The high standard of quality is rooted not only in the experience of their highly skilled watchmakers but also in the remembrance of ancient customs linked to the 'cycle of seven', which is the key number that made the company famous throughout the world.Case: Generally in fair to good condition. Hinge and catch in good working order. Some scuffing and bruising to the reverseDial: Generally in good condition. A bit of deterioration to the blue on the hands and some loss to the 24 hour numerals.Movement: In working order, but not tested for timekeeping or running time. Hand setting button functional.
