Case is frozen shut and will not open.. I didn’t wind it too far just a bit… And it took off with a shake… With constant movement it may stay running…. But as the nature of vintage watch stuff… I can’t say how long it will actually run and if it will time correctly for days…. I recommend having it serviced by a reputable matchmaker for daily carry and use….. Please review all pics and if you need any others please message your request. Some glass requires inner and outer boxes…. Please be aware of Holidays and expect extra days of travel if needed due to PO closures or naturally occurring weather related issues.
This is an antique gold filled Elgin octagon pocket watch serial # 23606813 which would suggest it was made early to mid 1920s, it needs cleaned but it runs smoothly when wound not sure how accurately it keeps time has some edge wear on outer case and the chain is broken around the middle refer to pictures overall great looking antique watch.
