Antique Elgin Full Hunter Pocket Watch, 1913

Antique Elgin full hunter pocket watch, 1913.

The watch has a 15-jewel grade 312 stem-winding movement which is working nicely. This is a good quality movement with a Mosely patent regulator, screw-set jewels and a Breguet hairspring. The movement has nicely patterned plates. Fully signed and carrying the serial number 17,328,303 which dates it back to 1913.

The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has some scratching where it has been opened in the past.

The watch measures 50mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold filled and was supplied to Elgin by the Keystone Watch Case Company. The case is beautifully decorated on both the front and back, including the image of a stag to the reverse, and it is all in beautiful condition.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover.

Inside, there is a glass lens which is in lovely condition (there is some white reflection showing in the photo).

The signed dial is in beautiful condition with original blued steel hands, a sunken subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

NB: Where we have specified a year of manufacture, this is based on hallmarks or serial numbers with published databases. The 'date of manufacture' given by SellingAntiques will vary slightly as the website only works to decades, not specific years.
