1940s Lord Elgin Wristwatch

This classic 1940s Lord Elgin men’s dress watch represents the high-water mark of mid-century American horology, serving as the flagship luxury line for the Elgin National Watch Company. Encased in a warm 14K gold-filled cushion-style case with distinctive curved lugs, this manual-wind timepiece features a handsome silver dial accented by gold colored applied Arabic numerals, stylized chevron hour markers, crisp crosshair lines, and a dedicated sub-seconds dial at 6 o’clock. The gold-tone sword hands offer excellent contrast, while the overall dial exhibits an authentic, gentle vintage patina that enhances its historical character. Fitted on a rich brown stitched leather strap that perfectly complements the gold tones, the case and crystal remain in good vintage condition. Whether added to a fine vintage collection or worn as a distinguished dress watch, this 25mm piece delivers timeless sophistication.  B7310 JISPM ALL timepieces are fully serviced and checked for keeping correct time prior to leaving. –Please reference our policy for more details before purchase– ***For International orders, please provide a phone number for shipping purposes.
