Smiths Mickey Mouse Pocket Watch

Ingraham, Tower and Westclox dollar pocket watchesI'm still working on the history of this one. It's a dollar watch, zero jewels and unadjusted. The dial has Disney's name and "made in Britain." Inside the branding is Smiths, which was a UK concern. Between the 1940s and 1960s they had partnered with US-based Ingersoll and made a lot of character watches, among them this Mickey.
