Description

Antique Elgin pocket watch, 1921.

The watch has a seven jewel grade 233 stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 24,001,385 which dates it back to 1921. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover which has quite a lot of 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 it is in lovely condition, just the odd small mark but nothing serious at all.

The glass lens is in good condition, just very light marking.

The signed dial has blued steel hands, a subsidiary seconds dial and outer minute markers. There are two very faint hairlines which are only visible through a jeweller’s loupe.

The watch comes in a new presentation box.

Declaration

The Vintage Wrist Watch Company has dated this piece to the 1920s.
