Genuine ELGIN watch in overall good condition, expect minor signs of wear consistent with age. The watch has been tested at the time of listing and is operational.
The 1950s Elgin watch, known as the “Golf Ball” due to its distinctive dimpled face, stands out not just for its digital display but also its unique design. This manually operated timepiece boasts an Elgin cal 717 movement and is encased in a 30mm 10k gold-filled and stainless steel frame.
Elgin watches have been a hallmark of American timekeeping for over a century, worn by notable figures like Buffalo Bill Cody, President Warren G. Harding, and Babe Ruth. As the leading American watch manufacturer, Elgin’s creations are not just tools for telling time but are cherished heirlooms and collector’s items for enthusiasts of American horology.
This particular Lord Elgin model exemplifies a blend of the past and future, featuring a mechanical digital display for both hours and minutes while retaining a vintage allure. It’s an entirely “American Made” testament to innovative yet timeless design.
