16s Elgin "Veritas" 21j railroad pocket watch. Rare grade 360
A fairly scarce railroad watch made by Elgin Watch Co. in 1908.
This is a 16s "Veritas" grade 360, with 21 jewels, a Swiss Lever escapement with double roller, Sapphire pallet stones, gold timing screws, and a patent "Moseley" micro-regulator. Beautifully finished with a lovely damaskeened pattern to the plates, gold jewel settings and gilt inlaid script, this is a lovely timepiece.
It is running well and keeping very good time. The watch is crown wind and lever set (withdraw the small lever by the 1 and rotate the crown to set the time) both functions working well.
Gold filled 3 piece case with screw on/off covers, both do so easily and both close down square and tight. The case is in lovely condition with no dents or dings and the gold intact throughout. Handsome case!
Montgomery style white enamel dial is in beautiful condition. Please study the photos.
A very good set of black enamelled hands under a very good acrylic crystal.
Overall, a fine railroad watch in beautiful condition and working well.
