Elgin Pennsylvania Railroad Co.

Just got this from a fellow in Illinois...Nice Watch...

Movement..Serial 125468

Hi Gary: Thats a beauty. Is that a silver case?

John not sure…Only markings on the case is the number 4 which I am thinking is for 4 ozs. It looks like silver but can’t say for sure…

Very nice! I love those old keywinds.

Looks like it has been well loved for a long time!

Nice piece of history Gary , any idea of how many were made?

I am not sure how many were produced...According to Tom Engle and Cooksey Shugart less than 350 were produced...This is article from Elgin Almanac 1874 which states around 500 at that time...So not sure...Either number a pretty scarce watch...

That's a nice one to own Gary.Looks like a pretty massive case.

Very nice and rare! Way to go Gary!
