An Assortment of Vintage Quick Fit Watch Winding Crowns in Numbered Glass Vials - A collection of eleven miniature glass vials containing assorted watch winding crowns. Each cylindrical clear glass vial is sealed with a tapered cork stopper and features a wrap-around tan paper label. The labels are printed with the arched text QUICK at the top and FIT at the bottom. Centered on each label is a bold, black-stamped number. The numbers present in this lot are 1, 4, 5, 6, 16, 20, 23, 28, 32, 33, and 34. The contents include various winding crowns in both yellow-tone and white-tone metals. Several vials (labeled 16, 32, and 33) contain white fiber packing material to protect the parts, while others contain loose metal components of varying sizes and profiles. Based on the ruler provided in the images, the eleven vials placed side-by-side measure approximately 5 1/4 inches in total width. Each individual vial stands approximately 3/4 of an inch tall, including the cork. The items are in vintage condition. The glass vials appear intact with no visible cracks or chips. The cork stoppers show typical age-related darkening and surface wear (photo 1). The paper labels have yellowed and show minor edge wear and occasional staining consistent with age and storage (photo 2). The internal metal components show varying degrees of surface oxidation and tarnish (photo 4). One vial (labeled 34) is missing its paper label on the reverse side, showing only the adhesive residue (photo 4).
