An Antique Elgin Full Hunter Pocket Watch, 1897

19th century
Description

An antique Elgin full hunter pocket watch.

The watch has a stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 6,671,387 which dates it back to 1897. It is protected by an inner hinged cover.

The watch measures 53mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold filled and is nicely detailed to both the front and back with engine turned detail, and a large vacant cartouche to the front. There is a pin-prick sized indentation to the front. The patterned centre section is a charming feature.

The winding crown presses in to release the front cover. Inside there is an acrylic lens which has very minor marking but is very acceptable. The white enamel dial has a few short hairline cracks around the edge but nothing too detrimental. Blued steel hands (initially lever set), a subsidiary seconds dial and an outer minute track.

PRICE INCLUDES WORLDWIDE POSTAGE

All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch.

We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations.

Credit / debit card purchases up to £300 can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers.

We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm.

With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
