Elgin 14K Solid Gold 12 Size Hunter Case Vintage Pocket Watch, To Fix
Posted by in elgin
This is a vintage men’s Elgin (12 Size) men’s pocket watch, from about 1919. It does not run. The balance appears to be good, and the watch will tick a few seconds when shaken. The movement has a. Few tiny dark spots on the steel parts. The case is Keystone Guaranteed 14K. 585 Fine (solid gold). It has a shallow dent on the front lid that is only obvious from inside. There is a deep crease on the edge of the inner back dust cover. There are a few small dents and dings on the ribbed edge. The front hinge is stretched, so the cover opens a little too far. The front lid latches shut most of the time, but occasionally it pops open by itself. The lids on this case seem relatively thin and flexible, like a light-duty case, but I don’t know the weight. The crystal is missing. The dial is in good condition. The hour and second hands are shiny. The minute hand is rusty, and badly bent. The winding crown looks good. The bow is shiny and tight. The watch measures about 1 5/8 inches side-to-side. See our other auctions! NO SALES to CHINA or ITALY or MALAYSIA or PANAMA or RUSSIA!
