Product Overview
This Elgin National Watch Co. USA hunter's case pocket watch is crafted in 14K yellow gold. It features a 34mm case diameter, a round shaped white coloured dial with black and red Arabic numerals and blue tinted metallic hands. There is a 60 second sub-dial at the 6 o'clock point, and it runs on a 15 Jewel American movement #10978732. The case number is #6003162. Both the front and back cases have a fancy engraved basket weave design with floral and leaf detailing. The front exhibits a fancy crest with the initials "LLC" in a delightful script. 'Hunters case' refers to a pocket watch with a completely closed metal cover to prevent the glass cover from breaking while the wearer is involved in something physical, such as a hunt.
The Elgin National Watch Company, known also as the Elgin Watch Company, was a major US watch maker from 1864 to 1968. The company sold watches under the names Elgin, Lord Elgin, and Lady Elgin. For nearly 100 years, the company's manufacturing complex in Elgin, Illinois, was the world's largest site dedicated to watchmaking. Throughout their history, the Elgin National Watch Company was known for horological innovations. The high volume and mass production of Elgin watches means a relatively lower cost, compared to other vintage watch brands. This affordable and easy access is the particular reason why vintage watch collectors pursue this brand. The prices range from a few hundred to thousands of dollars depending on the model, quality, and gold content. The company discontinued all US manufacturing in 1968.
• Gold fineness: 14K yellow gold
• Gram weight: 36.0
• Appraisal certificate included (Note: replacement value is based upon secondary market and not current retail values as the watch is no longer produced.)
• Dial measures approximately 34mm in diameter
