We would like to introduce you to an antique pocket watch by ELGIN, an American watch manufacturer founded in 1864.

This is a sterling silver hunter case pocket watch from around 1914.
This watch has a very beautiful case decorated with birds and small flowers in yellow and rose gold, which is called multicolor.
The overhaul history is unknown, but the balance swings well and is moving smoothly and energetically.


We hope that this “once in a lifetime opportunity” will be a special encounter for you!
