I looked it up in the Elgin collectors database:

http://elginwatches.org/cgi-bi...244317&action=search

It's a Grade 387, a fairly common pendant-set model, produced in 1912.

Based on the Shugart watch guide, I'd put the value in the $100-200 range, plus the value of the chain.


Best Regards,

Ed

Thanks Ed.

I guess I'll move it to the "Auction Section" and see what happens.
