If anybody has some additional information or questions about these watches, pleaseĬlick on any image below to see additional pictures and information for that watch. from The New Collector's Guide to Pocket Watches, Illinois also used more names on their watches than any other company, including names of companies which simply sold the watches, such as 'Burlington Watch Co.' and 'Washington Watch Co.' They are especially known for the large number of railroad grade and railroad approved watches they produced, including the Bunn Special, the Sangamo Special and the Santa Fe Special. Organized in 1869, Illinois made many low, medium and high grade watches before being sold to the Hamilton Watch Company in 1927.
