I have seen them before inside US 19-Set HOLDERS, Watches, but usually only one or two. Looks like somebody did a Happy Dance on this one!
I wonder if the HOLDERS, Watch in US production were imports from Britain, or Canada, or locally produced?

Here I was hoping for three squeezes of watch dampening rubber...
I have examples of British and Canadian watch holders and they are quite different (plus a nickel plated brass one on my No.1 set) and expect the Americans made their own. I've never had an American 19 set to inspect close up.
