The Illinois Corum 130-330-47-0137PN34 WoMen's watch Company is not a brand

On Her Majesty's Secret Service in 1969.1. Hodinkee in Rolex, Rolex Pre-Daytona, Vintage Monday, September 27, 2010 at 11:56AM The Illinois Corum 130-330-47-0137PN34 WoMen's watch Company is not a brand we have featured on Hodinkee before, but here we go! Illinois wristwatches from the 1920s are considered by some collectors to be the apogee of American watch.These watches were known for their distinctive case designs and beautifully detailed movements.There are a number of different Illinois wristwatches from the period that are objects of collectors’ desire including the Consul, Piccadilly, Manhattan, and New Yorker.

This is one of those cases where we don't feel the need to explain why this watch is so cool, the average reader can just look at it and fully understand the replica Breitling Windrider Chrono Cockpit watch beauty and relevance.We will say that this 35mm Jaeger Chrono has just been serviced and the dial is completely original.It is also only selling for a very reasonable $2795.If you are looking for an epicly cool watch from a storied and respected watch manufacturer, this is a hell of a deal.Click here for the details of this 1938 Jaeger chronograph .

Though, we are particularly fond of the Speedway Corum 130-330-47-0138BN34 WoMen's watch because of its racing heritage.The Speedway was given and worn by a number of the drivers in the 1929 Indianapolis 500 and Illinois Watch Company stated this in advertisements at the time.Retailing for $42.50 back in 1929, the particular Speedway we have shown is available for $950.For more information, click here(and scroll down).
