Pocket Watch Case

THE INFO BELOW WAS GENERATED BY AI BASED ON THE PHOTOS I TOOK. THE INFORMATION MIGHT HAVE INCORRECT INFO. IT HAS SOME ETECHINGS/CARVINGS ON THE INSIDE OF THE WATCH. Up for sale is a absolutely gorgeous piece of American history-a fully functional, antique Elgin pocket watch dating all the way back to around 1908! If you’re looking for a vintage piece that actually works and looks stunning doing it, this is the one. I’ve been letting it run, and it winds, sets, and ticks smoothly. Here are the exact details for the collectors out there. The Movement: Authentic Elgin National Watch Co. Mechanical movement, stamped with serial number 13190843 (which places its production right in 1908). It’s a 7-jewel workhorse grade featuring a safety pinion. The Dial: A crisp, beautiful white porcelain/enamel dial with classic Roman numerals, elegant blued-steel hands, and a sunken seconds sub-dial. The dial is incredibly clean with no nasty hairline cracks. The Case: Cased in a “Defiance” gold-filled pocket watch case warranted for 10 years (serial number 858549). Aside from the fact that it runs, the real star of the show here is the case artwork. The back features a stunning, highly detailed Art Nouveau floral engraving. Instead of a standard initials monogram, the little shield on the back actually has a tiny, beautifully engraved scenic castle/estate scene, which is super unique and adds tons of character. Condition Notes: Excellent vintage condition for being 118 years old! The engraving is still nice and crisp, and the crystal and dial are in fantastic shape. Please review the photos closely to see the exact condition for yourself. If you plan to wear it every single day, a routine professional cleaning and oiling is always recommended to keep it happy and accurate for the long haul!
