ELEGANT MID-CENTURY MODERN ELGIN GOLDEN AUTOMATIC DATE WATCH RUNS WELL. Condition is "Pre-Owned"; Item Is Sold "AS IS"; Shipped with USPS Ground Advantage. Signature Confirmation may be required for this item.

With its unique brushed golden angular accented case, matching softly glowing dial and complimenting leather inset band, this timepiece is ready for its debut on "Mad Men". Treat your wrist to something special; to the style and elegance you've always wanted to become accustomed too.

This vintage gem measures 31mm without the crown and 35.5mm lug to lug. The case is in very good condition with only minor surface scratches and scuffs noted. The acrylic crystal, as seen in the pictures, does have scratches; but, the band is like new. The date has a quick set feature similar to the very early Rolex Presidents requiring the rotation of the hands between 1AM and 8AM to change the date. The timepiece runs and currently keeps good time with the date changing at midnight; however, unerring accuracy is not guaranteed nor should not be expected. Since I have not serviced this watch, nor am I aware of its service history, I cannot guarantee its future performance. If optimal timekeeping is required, a cleaning and adjustment is recommended.

Please review all the pictures as they represent far more accurately the items condition than any verbal description that I can provide. In those situations where you are uncertain or unsure, ask questions, before bidding. Don't assume. Asking questions will ensure that you receive what you expect. Most if not all of the horological items which I present for auction are from watchmakers' estates which have been in storage for a number of years. Consequently, I have no details as to their prior history nor can I offer any information other than what has been gleaned from cursory observation.


Now for the boring stuff:


Please study the photographs closely as they are considered part of the description. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me prior to bidding.
