1 uploaded photo

Overview

A classic-styled quartz wristwatch featuring a multi-dial display and a moon phase or day/night indicator.

Story

The name 'Elgin' once represented the beating heart of American industrial might, with a factory in Illinois so large it had its own police force and fire department.

Maker / Origin

Founded in 1864, the original Elgin National Watch Company produced nearly half of all pocket watches made in America.

Condition & Value

The watch appears to be in excellent cosmetic condition, possibly 'New Old Stock' given the presence of the original box and tags. Modern quartz Elgins are valued primarily as functional fashion accessories.
