What makes the Springfield 477 unique:Today, we are so excited to show you the Springfield 477, originally manufactured by the Illinois Watch Company. The luminescence of this watch is unparalleled — immediately we are struck with the beautiful golden color of the dial and sub-dial, paired with a gray ornate design. The subtle aging adds character and depth to the dial, and the gothic-style numbers stand starkly against the yellow background. And let’s not forget about the stunning blue hands with ornate craftsmanship and detail. Our PVD Zircon Gold case matches the luster of the dial while providing protection for years to come. Peering through the clear display, you can see that the back of the watch is just as beautiful. The gold-plated and bronze gears work flawlessly together, while the bridge plate keeps everything secured. This 405-grade piece is powered by 17 jewels, each screw-set with bronze hardware. Machined lines run horizontally across the plate, catching your eye in the natural light. Lastly, our Stout leather strap contrasts with the golden hues magnificently and brings unity to the piece. This watch was originally built in Springfield, Illinois, in 1923 — the same year that Warner Brothers Pictures Inc. was officially established in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. Four years later, Warner Brothers released their first sound film “The Jazz Singer,” which starred Al Johnson.
