| Case Details | 1-24-15, I just received this watch. A very nice fellow collector sold this and another identical movement for parts. Cost $59.00 Delivered. He did me a real solid on this one. Thank you Michael. If i can ever return the favor just ask. I will give this watch a complete service. I will have think about the new case. Possibly a Silver case with a gold crown would accent the gold leaf this model watch has on the movement plates. Three finger Elgins are a personel favorite of mine. This is a GM Wheeler which are Gold leafed. as opposed to the regular black paint version. And the larg and small winding wheels come demaskeened. |

| Dial Details | Very nice condition. Small hair line at the 11, 19, 36 minute mark. I will clean and recheck. Hands are a beautiful blue coloring. Crown, neck, bow are worn. Chrystal is nice. I will probably prepair a nice case after the servicing. Possibly a silver with a gold grown to accent the gold leafing on the plates. |
| Movement Markings | From a technical aspect I would say this movement was professionally service. I see little to no screw driver marks. Very unmolested. What a buy. Thank you Michael. |
