The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Founded in 1864 in Illinois, the Elgin National Watch Company became one of the largest American watchmakers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. During the Edwardian era, Elgin produced precision mechanical timepieces known for standardized interchangeable parts and reliable timekeeping.

Pocket watches from this era typically feature gold-filled or solid gold cases housing spring-driven mechanical movements. Dials were commonly crafted from vitreous white enamel with fired black Roman or Arabic numeral markings and blued steel hands.

Authenticity is verified by inspecting the serial number stamped directly onto the inner movement rather than the case. Elgin movements feature distinct grade numbers, jewel counts, and manufacturing serial numbers that correspond directly to historical factory production ledgers.

An antique pocket watch can be displayed on a dedicated glass dome or brass pocket watch stand as a decorative desk accessory. Alternatively, it can be worn traditionally with a fob chain attached to a waistcoat pocket or modern tailored jacket.

Keep mechanical pocket watches away from moisture, magnetic fields, and extreme temperature fluctuations. The mechanical movement should be professionally serviced, cleaned, and oiled by a qualified horologist every three to five years to prevent wear on internal gears.
