I THOUGHT I WOULD POST A PICTURE OF THIS WATCH SINCE THE ELGIN ARCHIVES SAY ONLY 500 ARE KNOWN TO EXSIST. THIS HAS A FEMALE WINDING ARBOR IN THE MOVEMENT AND A MALE STEM ON THE CASE. IT DOES NEED A NEW BOW AND CROWN, THE CROWN IS PEELING AND BOW IS BRASSING. IF ANYONE HAS ONE THAT WILL FIT I AM WILL TO BUY.

Leonard
That,s a beauty one of the nicest elgin,s ever made i love the jewels on these.

THANK YOU SAMIE, I HAD A ROUGH TIME POSTING ,SO TO SEE THE WHOLE WATCH YOU HAVE TO KEEP CLICKING DOWN.

leonard next time you post up a watch just hit reply to post and replay too your own post that way you can load several pictures without having too start a new topic..

Your watch is among the rarest of the Elgins i have only ever seen 2 or 3 of these..

THANKS FOR THE INFO ON POSTING SAMIE. AS FOR THE WATCH GOES IT WAS A BUY IT NOW ON EBAY LAST WEEK. IT HAS BEEN IN ONE FAMILY SINCE NEW AS FAR AS I KNOW, FROM THE SELLER WHO IS 81 YEARS OLD. I JUST GOT IT TONIGHT AND IT NEEDED CLEANING AND THE PLASTIC CRYSTAL REPLACED. IT STARTED RUNNING WITH 7 TURNS WHILE BEING HELD VERY STILL. I DIDNT SEE HARDLEY ANY MISS- USE MARKS ANY WHERE INSIDE.

Good thing you saw that before me, you pretty much got a 14K case for free! As I said in my email, Christmas?

LEONARD

Leonard - I am so jealous! You have a gorgeous watch there and quite scarce, too! You did very well with this one. I will be glad to babysit it
for you sometime!

THANKS MARY ANN , TOM BROWN KEEPS TELLING ME CHRISTMAS IS JUST AROUND THE CORNER AND HE WOULD TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT. DO YOU THINK I COULD START A NEW COMPANY CALLED RENT -A -WATCH ?
LEONARD

How about Leonard's Loaners? I will be 1st in line.

Tom

Ha! Ha! That's good! Rent-a-watch! Leonard's Loaners!

If it wasn't for the fact that I think it best to keep shipping of watches to a minimum, either could be the next entrepreneurial success!

Leonard - if you happen to drive to Texas, stop by and show it off. Then you can go on to Tom in New Mexico.
