Under the slogan „a clock resembles the other one“ with a high quality standard and with for the time at that time a relatively reasonable price from later a dollar (corresponded to a daily wage) the dollar in such a way „specified - Watch“ was born. The dollar - Watch was much likes, so that in the long run some millions pieces were produced. Even Theodor Roosevelt mentioned that he as „the man from the country where the Ingersolls are made“ was described, while he hunted in Africa.

Success the dollar – Watch also from now on“Yankee“ was astonishing mentioned. The Ingersoll – of brothers had to always consider to the large demand, by increasing production increased and the production. Thus one of the smallest watches was produced, s.g. „Pocket Watch“. In the year 1919 the Ingersoll of brothers in-wound the first clock in the new night Design, „the Radiolite“ with illuminated figures.

In the meantime produced Charles Ingersoll the army an extra durable mechanical wrist-watch with shortenable metal member volume – the Military „Watch was lifted when desired into the baptism. Later this clock in a small series for clock lovers was presented.

When 1912 the luxury liner „Titanic“ on the young remote travel sank by a tragic accident and many humans their life lost, drowned also the passenger OSCAR Scott Woody, whose watch Ingersoll Midgett provided with „ – an engraving“ was lifted during a dipping course taken place recently to the wreck of the luxury liner.
