Serial Number 24849266 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I am disagreeing with the 1922, estimated date of
manufacture. Only because the web site
http://elginwatches.org/databases lists this
production date to be 1921. I present this
discrepancy only as a opportunity to possibly
tighten up on the serial number production date.
After all this site is calling this a estimate.
No big deal. Over all this is a great site to see
and gain information. Take the time to click on
the members site names. This will take you to
that member page, where more information can be
found. Thanks for the great job of presenting
this site.
Curator Response: The estimated production date is simply an estimation, usually within +/- 3 years. We would love for this to be more accurate, but due to the process of how movements were finished and sold, there is truly no way to determine the exact date/year unless factory ledgers exist for each serial number, which, in the case of Elgin, they do not. Any other database stating the year is purely an estimation as well. Thanks for using the site, and I hope you find it useful in the future.
