Showcasing a true quality and style the 14 karat white gold case exhibits superior condition while the following engraving is featured on the back: "To Clyde W. Smith CENTER WORLD'S CHAMPION STEAM ROLLER FOOTBALL TEAM 1928". The only known example ever offered publicly it has been beautifully matched with a vintage looking black leather band and includes an alternate 12 karat white gold plated bracelet. Superb piece that was presented to the first-team All-NFLer at the team's "victory banquet" at the Biltmore Hotel in Providence Rhode Island.
