Product Details

Presented here is a vintage Lord Elgin DuraPower presentation wristwatch dating to circa 1950, featuring a rectangular 14K yellow gold case, its original strap, and a personalized caseback engraving. This mechanical watch is powered by a manual-wind movement featuring hours, minutes, and sub-seconds at 6 o’clock. It also incorporates Elgin’s DuraPower mainspring technology, developed to improve mainspring durability and reliability. The champagne dial features applied gold-tone Arabic numerals and triangular hour markers, matching gold-tone hands, and a small-second register at 6 o’clock. The rectangular case measures approximately 22 x 29mm and is crafted in 14K yellow gold. It is paired with its original brown leather strap and buckle. The caseback is engraved, indicating that the watch was presented in connection with five years of service or membership. Presentation watches like this were commonly used during this period to recognize employee service and other milestones. This timepiece has been inspected by our in-house watchmaker and is running and keeping time.
