By 1900, the scenic beauty of the Pike's Peak region had become well known, making it a popular destination with visitors from across the nation. This influx of tourism along with the apex of the Cripple Creek mining boom saw El Paso and Teller Counties become a hub of freight and passenger activity. Over the next 30 years and through challenging economic times, the area would be served by 11 different railroads and an interurban line. The Midland Terminal and the Colorado Springs and Cripple Creek District Railways relied heavily on the revenue gleaned from Cripple Creek ore production, but as the output of these mines declined, so too did the coffers of the railroads that supported them. Larger railroads like the Santa Fe andthe Colorado & Southern increased their regional presence through joint agreements and the expansion of local facilities. Still other roads had a more local flair, including the Manitou & Pike's Peak whose unique cog railway
introduced "America's Mountain" to thousands of tourists. Mass transit also came to the region as the Colorado Springs & Interurban Railway became part of a legacy left by millionaire Winfield Scott Stratton to the people of Colorado Springs.

DOA - doesn't work.
Color: A Gold
Love the looks of this watch but I cannot get it to work. I think that it is mechanical, but I wind it and it only runs for one to 10 minutes and sometimes not at all. Am I doing something wrong?

nice watch but expect what you pay for.
Color: A Gold, Color: A Gold
Pretty solid watch decent size face i prefer large face watches even with my small wrist. Its pretty good at staying synchronized. The case is pretty solid but closer inspection makes it look cheap, i still love though and it does get a lot of looks. The band is my really only big complaint it feels chintsy and cheap, the clasp spring fellout once but very simple to re-insert and if you have small wrist like me its definite resize. Other than that for the price its a cool mechanical watch.

good for big wrists
my wrist is almost 9 inches so some choices are too small. plus I like a slightly loose fit rather than snug. it's beautiful just like the pictures. happy with it.
