To open a Waltham pocket watch, locate the winding crown, which is usually found at the top of the watch. Gently pull the crown out to the first position to unlock the case. Depending on the model, you may need to twist or press a small latch or button near the crown to release the case back. If it's a hunter case, you can also flip open the front cover by pressing the latch.
