{"product_id":"elgin-14k-gold-filled-pocket-watch-chain-fob","title":"Elgin - Antique 14K GF Streamline Pocket Watch with Watch Chain","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn antique 14k gold filled pocket watch made by the Elgin National Watch Company of Elgin, Illinois, one of America’s most respected historic names in horology. Based on its movement serial number, this beautiful piece dates to approximately 1925.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a Grade 479, Model 4, 12-size open-face pocket watch featuring a premium, factory-adjusted 17-jewel movement with a nickel-finished 3\/4 plate. Designed for accuracy, this movement features a high-grade bimetallic balance wheel and a Breguet overcoil hairspring to combat temperature variations. This specific piece comes from a limited sequential production batch run of 2,000 units within the larger grade run.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFunctionality:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWatch winds up freely and runs with second hand. Tested lying flat face down and face up for an hour each, it kept time perfectly. When, sat vertically, it began to run fast. Sometimes takes a very delicate tap or two to get it first running. A routine COA (clean, oil, adjust) servicing to wash away 100-year-old dried lubricants, done by a professional should be able to get this watch running smoothly again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElgin was one of the largest and most trusted watch manufacturers in American history, and pieces like this one are treasured today for their craftsmanship and reliability. Whether you're a collector or looking for a meaningful gift, this is a timeless piece you can actually carry and use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe chain is 14 inches long. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInside back lid cover engraved: \"Elgin Streamline 14K.
