Essay
The Waltham Watch Company, also referred to as the American Waltham Watch Co., manufactured approximately 40 million clocks, watches, and other precision instruments in the United States from 1850 to 1957. Prior to 1850, watches in America were typically imported from England or Switzerland. However, this would later provided an opportunity, as Waltham then became renowned for crafting intricately designed, high-end pocket watch movements within America.
