​B.W. Raymond was used as a trade name used on pocket watch movements manufactured by Elgin.  The "B.W. Raymond" watch was named after Benjamin Wright Raymond, the first president and one of the primary investors in the National Watch Company of Chicago (later renamed the Elgin National Watch Company). Mr. Raymond served as president from the organization of the company in 1864 until October 10, 1867.  The name was used for nearly 100 years on many of Elgin's high-end movements, spanning the entire life of the company.  This B.W. Raymond is one of the rarest and one of the highest end railroad watch of the time period.  This classic 16s watch features a near perfect full Montgomery dial, with no hairlines or cracks noted; in fact, this dial is as good as you can find them.  There are no chips and flakes around the edges...it's just very minty!  The movement is super clean and well preserved.  Very nicely done classic Geneva stripes as decoration sets this movement apart from many others of the era; and I believe 9 adjustments is the highest number of adjustments ever made.  It's try there were many of these watches made, it was one of the most popular, like the Illinois Bunn Special.  However, many are not marked 9 adjustments on the movement, these are rare and tough to find.  This is another reason this watch is highly sought after.  The case is in decent condition.  There is a tiny shallow ding on the back cover as well as some slight brassing around the edge of the case back.  There are no flaws noted on the sides or front of the case.  The case has never been polished and is made by Elgin.  It is 10k yellow gold filled and features very handsome engraving on the bezel and is one of the most classic and a personal favorite Elgin B.W. Raymond case.  This is was serviced July 2018, runs, sets and keeps great time.
