44 mm Elgin Model 2 conversion from 1910 with a Fancy Dial

Elgin National Watch Co. was in operation from 1864-1968 and was an American pocket watch manufacturer. Manufacturing of Elgin watches took place at their facility in Elgin, Illinois.

This Elgin pocket watch was manufactured in Elgin, Illinois, and was finished in 1910. The watch is powered by Elgin’s in-house 15 jewel Grade 314 movement, which was produced between 1904-1928. The movement features 15 jewels and has the original golden colored hardware, which was produced by Elgin at the time of manufacture in 1910. The brass jewel settings discolor over time and have been restored to their original golden color, and the black, enamel letting was restored by hand. The Elgin dial is porcelain-enamel, in excellent condition, and features an elegant design. The dial is in the fancy style and features golden inly and a blue center. The hands of the watch are gold colored and in the fancy Louis XIV style. The watch is cased in a new silver-colored wrist watch conversion case so the watch can be enjoyed on your wrist. The watch comes fully serviced and ready for your next adventure.
