The Burlington 016 is the 16th one-of-a-kind piece in Vortic's "" line of the American Artisan Series. This watch contains the original movement (timepiece), dial (face), and hands from a vintage (1880’s – 1950’s) pocket watch. The American Artisan Series is a line of fully American Made wristwatches powered by restored, U.S. made pocket watch movements.

What makes the Burlington 016 Unique: The Burlington Watch Company was based in Chicago, Illinois, and was actually a private label brand manufactured by the Illinois Watch Company. You'll see similar dial designs across the companies bu the movement bridge style for Burlington was special and made just for them. Not very many 21j movements like this were made, making this one truly unique.
