Pocket Watch: 1924 Elgin Pocket Watch & Chain

The watch has a 17-jewel stem-winding movement, grade 345, which is working nicely. This is a good quality movement with a Moseley patent regulator and screw-set jewels in gold settings. The movement is fully signed and it has the serial number 26,686,395 which dates it back to 1924. The watch measures 45mm wide at the widest point. The case is the 10kt white gold filled Defiance model from the Star Watch Case Company. The case is beautifully decorated all around, and it is in good condition with just light surface marking, nothing too serious at all. The lens is in good condition. The signed dial is in beautiful condition with original blued steel hands and subsidiary seconds dial with matching hand. There are also red minute markers around the perimeter of the dial. The watch comes with a single chain, 36cm long including the clasps. The watch and chain come in a new presentation box. All prices include UK postage (excluding Northern Ireland).
