Brief History: Elgin Watch Company Including Serial Numbers and Production Dates. The Elgin Watch Company (also known as the Elgin National Watch Company) was the largest US watch company in terms of production. In fact, Elgin produced approximately one-half of the total number of higher-quality pocket watches manufactured in the United States. Total production over their 100 years of operation reached 60 million watches! The company was founded in 1864 in Elgin, Illinois as the National Watch Company, and some of the organizers were J. Currier, Otis Hoyt, and Charles H. Mason, with financial backing from former Chicago Mayor Benjamin W. The factory for the National watch company was completed in 1866, and the first movement produced was an 18-size B. In 1874, the company officially changed their name to the Elgin National Watch Company, and that name remained until they stopped producing watches in the early’60′s. Elgin was not known for making the highest quality watches, though some of their higher grades were exquisitely made timepieces. Together with Waltham Watch Company, they dominated the huge market for mid-grade watches. Elgin watches remain extremely popular with collectors today because they are plentiful, can be obtained at reasonable prices, and can be relatively easily repaired due to the large number of watches and parts available. Throughout their history, the Elgin National Watch Company was known for Horological innovations. In 1958, they introduced the “Dura Balance, ” an ingenious design for a free-sprung balance (no regulator pins) which used spiral balance arms and small weights to govern the moment of inertia of the balance. They also produced the only American-made automatic wristwatch movements: grades 607, 618, 760, and 761. These movements featured bi-directional, full-rotor winding, and had two automatic winding gear ratios, which were automatically engaged as the mainspring tension increased. The contributions of the Elgin National Watch Company to American Horological industry cannot be overstated. Many Elgin watches that were made over 100 years ago are still providing reliable and accurate daily service to their proud owners. Get Supersized Images & Free Image Hosting.

An elegant vintage mechanical wristwatch with the refined character and craftsmanship collectors look for in a well-preserved period timepiece. This handsome example features a polished gold-filled case, classic vintage proportions, a hinged caseback, and a coordinating metal expansion bracelet. Its understated styling gives it the sophisticated appearance associated with fine mid-century jewelry and traditional American watchmaking. At the heart of the watch is a 17-jewel mechanical movement with a traditional lever escapement. Importantly, the watch was professionally serviced within the past two weeks and is presently performing exceptionally well. It winds and sets smoothly and has demonstrated excellent timekeeping, with no noticeable gain or loss during daily observation. The recent professional service is a significant advantage for the next owner, distinguishing this piece from many vintage watches offered in unknown or unserviced condition. It is ready to be worn, displayed, or added directly to an established collection. The gold-filled case retains an attractive polished appearance with the subtle signs of age and use expected of an authentic vintage timepiece. These natural indications of age contribute to its character rather than detracting from its overall presentation. Notable features include a 17-jewel mechanical movement, lever escapement, polished gold-filled case, hinged caseback, vintage expansion bracelet, smooth winding and setting operation, recent professional service, and excellent current timekeeping. This is a particularly appealing watch for the collector of vintage American timepieces, estate jewelry, or classic mechanical watches. Its combination of traditional craftsmanship, handsome presentation, recent servicing, and dependable operation makes it an excellent opportunity to acquire a vintage watch that can be appreciated both as a collectible and as a functional timepiece. Please review all photographs carefully, as they are considered an important part of the description and accurately represent the exact watch being offered. As with any vintage mechanical watch, future accuracy and service intervals cannot be guaranteed, but the watch is currently running and performing exceptionally well following its recent professional service.
