An Antique 1891 Elgin Full Hunter Pocket Watch.

An antique 1891 Elgin full hunter pocket watch.

The watch has a stem-winding movement, grade 96, which is working nicely. The movement is signed and the serial number 4342750 dates it back to 1891. The movement is protected by an inner hinged cover. The hands are adjusted with a setting lever which is at 5 o'clock, to change the time pull the setting lever out and turn the hands clockwise to the required time and then push the lever back in.

The watch itself measures 53mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The case is gold plated and was made by the Keystone Watch Case Company. The case has light wear to the edges but overall it is in nice condition, just a couple of small slight indentations to the back.

The winding crown pushes in to open the front cover, inside the plastic lens is in nice condition.

The signed white enamel dial has a couple of faint hairline cracks, but overall it is in nice condition for an 1890s piece.

The watch will be sent in a new presentation box.

Price includes worldwide postage.
