THANK YOU! ==== Brief History: New York Standard Watch Company Including Serial Numbers and Production Dates 1885 - 1929 Jersey City, New Jersey The New York Standard watch company was first incorporated in 1885 and operated in Jersey City, New Jersey. They should not be confused with the New York watch company, which was one of the predecessors of the Hampden Watch company. New York Standard produced watches in the following sizes: 18, 16, 12, 6, 0, 3/0 and 10/0 in 7-15 jewels. They are, perhaps, best known for offering a unique straight line lever "worm-gear" escapement, patented by R. J. Clay. New York Standard operated from 1885 until 1929 and produced over 8 million watches. Some of their models are more common, while some are extremely rare. Repairing New York Standard watches has become very difficult due to the lack of availability of parts for repair. In many cases it is simply not possible to locate parts and repairs for certain models are no longer possible. New York Standard Watch Company Approximate Serial Numbers and Dates This table is known to be incorrect! This is the only published table of NYS serial numbers and dates we've seen, but I do not believe these numbers to be accurate. Serial number information for New York Standard is incomplete and inconclusive. To the best of our knowledge, there are no complete serial number/date records available for New York Standard watches, and it appears that New York Standard did not use a reliable system of sequential numbers to identify their watches. Some watches appear to have a serial number, while others have a number which seems to describe size and model. Some serial numbers bear a prefix of unknown meaning. We would love to hear from anyone with more complete or accurate information on NYS serial numbers. Year S/N 1890 600,000 1895 900,000 1900 (description exceeds maximum possible length)
