Pocket Watch Case

This is a functional and very old Elgin National Watch Co. Pocket watch with a beautiful B&B Royal case material and a white analog dial color. It has a mechanical (manual) movement and was manufactured between 1886 to 1895. Unfortunately, it does not come with papers or original box/packaging. This pocket watch was designed for men and falls under the categories of watches, pocket watches, watches parts and accessories, as well as jewelry and watches. It is not customized and the model is unknown. Despite its age, it still functions well and is a great addition for collectors or anyone who appreciates vintage timepieces.

Cannot seem to get it to wind up. Some wear – “damage ” where someone prayed open the case multiple times.

Case with Crown 53. Case Thickness 11.4. The early years of the company were marked by rapid expansion and innovation. In 1874, the company introduced the first full plate movement, which was more durable and accurate than previous designs. In 1875, Elgin introduced the first watch with a stem winding and setting mechanism, which became the industry standard. The company was also known for its high-quality movements and its innovative designs, which included the first wristwatch with an alarm and the first watch with a shock-resistant balance. During World War II, Elgin produced watches for the military, including the A-11, which became known as the Watch That Won the War. After the war, the company continued to produce watches, but faced increasing competition from foreign manufacturers and the rise of quartz technology. The Elgin name has since been used by various companies, but the original Elgin Watch Company is remembered as one of the most important American watchmakers in history. Please be prepared to stand behind any offer you make. Once we accept an offer, it takes the product off of the market for us AND other buyers. If you are considering making an offer and would like to know if we would accept a price, please simply message us and ask PRIOR to making the offer. We ask that you please make a formal offer only once you are committed to the offer. Vintage watches are traditionally smaller than today’s watches. Men’s watches typically measure between 29-36mm wide (some larger, some smaller) excluding the crown. In the listing details we typically try to do our best to list all pertinent dimensions of a watch. If you don’t see it, or we failed to do so, please reach out to us. Women’s watches from the 1900s-1970s were also much smaller than today’s offerings. Please also feel free to ask any questions you have pertaining to size. We prefer to shoot photographs outside when weather is permitting. However, when we shoot indoors, please be aware that we shoot our photographs inside of lightboxes that are lit with 360 LED bulbs. This indeed magnifies any flaws. Usually, they are much less obvious to the naked eye. Having said that, we never photoshop any of our photography, remove blemishes, etc. We adjust the lighting, when necessary, but what you see is what you are getting, and we take pride in that. The condition is pre-owned. The item may have some signs of cosmetic wear but is fully operational and functions as intended. Please review the photos and feel free to ask any questions you may have. It will be carefully packed. Please view our other listings. If this item is a watch, unless otherwise noted, it is keeping accurate time over a 2-4-hour time period. We specialize in watches that are 20-100 years old, and as such, these items are previously worn, and the quality of the item WILL reflect that. Expect for a vintage timepiece to have blemishes… This is part of what gives these amazing pieces their charm. Further, unless a watch specifically says that it has been recently serviced, expect that at some point in time, this timepiece will need a professional servicing in order to run and keep excellent time, which is also part of the experience of owning any mechanical watch. If an extremely accurate, worry-free experience is what you are seeking, we would recommend purchasing a new quartz watch. Very few, if any, vintage watches will keep as accurate time as a modern quartz watch. We do our absolute best to take accurate photographs of our items and to show any blemishes. Examples of common characteristics of a vintage timepiece are: -imperfections on the crystal -imperfections on case -imperfections on the lugs -unless stated that the strap is new, the leather is often quite old and may need replacing in the future -metal bracelets may not include all of the links that the watch originally may have come with, but can be replaced with a bracelet or strap of your choosing. If the item is a piece of vintage jewelry, be aware that the item may have some minor blemishes such as: -missing stones (view photos, we will NEVER photoshop in a missing stone or piece) -minor scratches or discoloration -fading of plating -fading of paint. We do our best to take accurate photos and provide accurate descriptions. We want this purchasing experience to be pleasant and surprise-free. Vintage and antique items, unless “new old stock”, have been around the block a time or two. Thank you for your business! We hope to see you return in the future!

Antique Elgin Pocket Watch Hunting Case Grade 216 (Model 2) Serial 8616764 Estimated Production Year: 1900 Runs Good. I have wound this daily for the last 10 days and it’s keeping good time. About the gold content on this fine watch. The thickness of the gold is far more than ordinary gold filled. From what knowledgable watchmakers have told me the outer cases were made of solid gold with a base metal center, so there is more than doubt quite a bit of gold even if you just decided to scrap the case (which would be sad). This watch was serviced about 3 years ago. The movement is stamped: 8616764 15 Jewels Elgin Natl. Inside the movement lid (dust cover) it says Guaranteed 20 Years J. Inside the back lid reads: Keystone Watch Case 2637183. Stamped inside the cover is 2637183. The crystal is clear and the enameled dial is clean except a pale green line between the 3 and 4. It doesn’t present itself as a crack, but I want to be up front about everything. The case is 42mm wide or about 1.5 inches. Has a monogram shield on the front but no engraving. Weighs 2.2 ounces or 62.2 grams. Suitable for both men or women.
