Elgin Men's 15j Sterling Silver Cushion Case with U.S.A. Military Dial, Restored to Mint Condition, c.1923

This is a lovingly restored example of a men’s Elgin military style sterling silver cased watch that bridges the gap between the wire lug WWI era and the art deco watches that would dominate the market by the end of the 1920s. While it looks similar to a watch from the Great War it was made in 1923 and it has two distinct differences from earlier models. First is that the dial is enamel finished over metal, not porcelain enamel and second is that it was designed for a strap/band that uses spring bars, not a fold-over strap for solid wire lugs. Full sized sterling  silver cushion case measures 32mm x 38mm snap back with original oversized military style crown. The case is superb with no scratches, damage or personalization. White enameled metal dial has been meticulously restored to its factory original appearance. It is complete with a 60 minute outer track border, aged brown (to mimic radium but safe) Arabic numerals, original blue steel spade style hands and a recessed sub-seconds dial with 60 second outer chapter. Signed ELGIN USA below the 12. New old stock flawless glass crystal. Inside we find a clean, Fifteen Jewel manual wind movement (Caliber 464, 3/0 Size) signed ELGIN, U.S.A - 15 JEWELS with serial number #26,527,174 which dates the watch to 1923. It has been freshly serviced by us and is running strong and keeping good time. Fitted with a new 16mm tan genuine pigskin strap in men's length and the original sterling silver buckle.
