c.1876 Elgin Grade 53 Ladies’ Watch
The Elgin National Watch Company offered this 10-Size Ladies’ watch in the mid-1870s. While the movement only features seven jewels, representing the minimum count for Elgin watches, the watch served as an elegant fashion accessory at the time.
The dial is signed with the “E.N.W.Co.” monogram, symbolizing the “Elgin National Watch Company” name.
The estimated total production for this particular watch was limited, with only 4,000 manufactured before being discontinued around 1876.
