1923 Elgin 7 Jewel 12s Pocket Watch Runs Good Silverode Case Working

 

This watch is in running condition and the case is in good condition.  The metal dial of the watch looks good with the hour marks labeled around the outside edge.  The black blue tinted hands are also in good condition.  The crystal is plastic.  It is a mechanical watch, which means that you wind the watch by turning the stem.  I wound the watch and it was off about 1 minute after running for 24 hours.  Pull out the crown to set time.  The watch winds very easily. The case measures 1 ¾ inches across. 

The things I see wrong with this watch is that the case seems stained or tarnished.

 

The front of the watch reads:

Elgin

 

The movement reads:

Elgin Nat’l Watch Co

U.S.A.

(not marked but is Seven Jewels)

26751743

The inside case reads:

The outside case reads:

Questions always welcome as I aim to describe all aspects of my items to the best of my ability.  There is no guarantee on accuracy for an old watch thus is being sold as is.  I timed this watch dial up and crown up to get the timing mentioned above.  As always it is suggested to get watches fully services to bring them back to perfect precision and proper time keeping.
