Description
Maker: Elgin Watch Company c. 1969 - 1972
Model: 366 (Caliber 11)
Model: 366 (Caliber 11)
Condition: coming to you as shown is an Elgin 17 jewel caliber 366(Caliber 11/12 Heuer)automatic 2 register chronograph wristwatch for restoration. The gold filled case is stamped Plaque G10 between the lugs and shows no wear through to the gold plating. The movement looks very clean and no signs of moisture damage and is currently running and keeping accurate time. Although it is running, it is being sold as a non-running watch for restoration only due to the minor issues it does have and the presumption, that the buyer will have it serviced prior to wearing on a regular basis. The rotor sounds a little wobbly as there is some slapping if you give it a good shaking. It winds and sets smoothly. The date will advance about 5 minutes earlier than 12am. The chronograph feature will start, stop but does not reset to zero and must be manually reset. The pushers look like they are either heavily worn or have been replaced and I'm leaning towards replaced. The reason why it won't reset to zero is that the pusher just doesn't quite go in far enough to engage the lever in order to reset. Not a difficult fix just letting you know its there. Also, the crystal has a crack in the upper right corner that looks much worse in the pictures than by the naked eye however, it will ultimately need to be replaced. You can see its performance here in the shop on the timegrapher however, the readings may differ upon arrival due to the bouncing around it will get during shipping. Overall, the watch is a pretty clean example of the 366 and only needs a crystal and the correct pusher to reset and its a great piece with the historical caliber 11 driving it.
I take great care in packaging all the items being sold but, I especially take extra precautions when packing clocks. I do everything I can to prevent your clock arriving damaged. Due to rising costs and some areas no longer being the rates they used to be, I no longer will offer large wall clocks with free shipping. If the clock appears very expensive for S&H, please inquire BEFORE making the purchase and I will check the accuracy of eBay's shipping calculator per your location. We do not offer refunds on S&H AFTER a payment has been made.
Measurements: 39.28mm lug to lug x 42.5mm wide not including the crown or pushers
