8 NAMED HORSE RACING POCKET WATCH SIZE VINTAGE MECHANICAL GAMBLING DEVICE 8 NAMED HORSE RACING PLUS RED / BLACK EVENS POCKET WATCH SIZE VINTAGE MECHANICAL GAMBLING DEVICE This is a pocket watch size gambling device that appears to be a standard size pocket watch with a dial but with a single hand, a stem, and a watch chain top ring. These devices are made with different faces for different gambling games, however all are designed as a pocket gambling piece for a Sporting Gent or Lady to offer a spontaneous game of chance to his / her companion(s) anytime, anywhere, such as at a gambling hall, barroom, saloon or tavern, casino, dog / horse racing or sporting event, for leisure, or perhaps for a drink or round of drinks. The domed watch crown is clear plastic with very light surface scratches. The dial face appears to be a typical watch face but has an image printed on the dial with a thin clear coating applied. Note it is nearly impossible to photograph a curved reflective surface and usually images have to be taken in dark light and or at angles to minimize the reflections. This particular watch dome reflects light and makes color variances to appear, but the dial background is solid dark green, and the multicolored horses have bright colors. There is one tiny white line at 8 o”clock that is under the crown that was created during the dial face printing process. The dial has segmented pie shapes with 8 different racehorses, 2 large pie shaped segments and 6 smaller pie shaped segments in varying sizes; each with a named horse and their pay out odds. There is an outside thin border in red. The horse names and odd are printed in very small black letters and numbers on a dark green background but can easily be read with magnification. The payouts range from 3 to 1 to 10 to 1. The center has a 50 / 50 betting option choosing red or black with even odds. These devices vary slightly in features, and most have a very simple in design and application, i.e., you wind the stem, and the single hand rotates and will stop on its own, with revolution speed and the number of full dial spins depending on how many times you wind the stem. The hand begins to turn as soon as the stem is wound, and usually a couple of turns will make the hand rotate a couple of times. The more you wind the stem, the faster it rotates and the longer the time until the hand comes to rest for the dog race results. The stem can be wound several times (2 – 4 is fine); anymore and you could possibly overwind the spring. Some of these pieces have slightly different mechanisms affected by the stem. This piece has a stem that when pushed while the hand is moving, will stop the hand. When the stem is released, the hand continues to rotate. With multiple players, each one would get to spin the hand with payouts for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place, i.e., win, show or place finishers, and perhaps automatic wins for the 10 to 1 horse. Theoretically, this gambling device could also be used with a layout for multiple bettors. Overall, in fine condition with normal scratches of pocket wear to the back shiny cover plate. These devices were mostly made in Germany, and I believe date to around the 1950’s – 60’s. The base metal is nickel-plated steel or brass. Pocket watch size 2” in diameter x 1/2” thick. weighing 2.1 ounces or 61 grams.

Buyers must keep their PayPal account in good standing. Buyers must show good faith conduct with the seller. Improper good faith conduct can include, but is not limited to, any means by which a buyer can attempt to unjustly benefit from the Seller’s Terms & conditions or eBay’s Buyer Protection plan. Moreover, good faith conduct does not include buyer’s remorse, regardless of the reason. Returns will not be accepted such as changed my mind, found a better price, just didn’t like it, Ordered by mistake, Arrived too late, etc. Returns will not be accepted and buyers will be reported to eBay when buyer makesfalse claims such as doesn’t match description or photos, doesn’t seem authentic, Doesn’t fit, Wrong item sent, Missing parts or pieces, Doesn’t work or defective, Arrived damaged. If you wish to take advantage of any of the issue resolution options available from the seller, you must have the business courtesy to discuss any potential issue within 3 days of receipt, and gain agreement with the seller prior to requesting a return through eBay, leaving feedback or initiating any online dispute process. By doing so, buyers commit to negotiate in good faith, and that they have not initiated any other form of resolution processing; including eBay / PayPal dispute process or credit card charge backs, or purchases where you have been or may be compensated by a third party. Possible buyer / seller resolution examples are: if seller and buyer agree that an item is significantly different than described and photographed, exchanging an item for a different item from the seller (whether listed or unlisted), credit from the seller against any current or future item, adjustment, trade, return, or any other arrangement that is mutually agreed upon between the seller and the buyer, and confirmed in writing via eBay’s email system. These options are designed to expedite resolution of any potential issue quickly, easily and amicably, in lieu of eBay / PayPal on-line dispute resolution process which is lengthy, laborious, and allows decisions to be made by a 3rd party instead of the principals; i.e., the buyer & seller.
