Subject: Re: Just had Elgin watch appraised, but.... Author: Jim [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05:35:05 11/08/05 Tue In reply to: Caitlin 's message, "Re: Just had Elgin watch appraised, but...." on 03:57:08 11/08/05 Tue You might want to take it back to the person that appraised it (or a jeweler) to get the back open so you can see the movement information for yourself, so you can know just what you have. If the other watch says "National Watch Co.," it's a very early Elgin, made before 1874, when they changed their name from the National Watch Co. to the Elgin National Watch Co., which they eventually just shorted to "Elgin" on the dial in the early 20th century or thereabouts.
