A Gents 9ct Gold Elgin Gents Wrist Watch, 1920

1900 - 1920
Description

A 9 carat gold Elgin gents wrist watch.

The watch has a hand-winding movement, grade 298, which is working nicely. The movement is signed and the serial number 18,282,853 which dates it back to 1915.

The watch itself measures 32mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the fixed lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the hinged case back for Birmingham 1920. As the import duty on precious metals was very high at the time, it was usual for movements to be imported from the US for casing within the UK, in this case by the Dennison Watch Case Company. The case is in good condition with just a little unevenness to the back.

The watch glass is in good condition.

The signed white enamel dial has several fairly faint hairline cracks and a little discolouration to the subsidiary seconds dial.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.

FREE WORLDWIDE POSTAGE

Please contact us regarding international shipping.

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.
