I was watching Perry Mason on HBO and loving the watches everyone was wearing. I picked up this late 1920's Elgin that was running but in pretty rough condition. I was able to find an NOS dial for the watch. Just picked it up from being serviced and having the crystal replaced. I'm really thrilled with the results. I do have a better strap heading my way but couldn't wait to show it off. Having been a jazz guitarist for a long time now it feels really cool to have an American made watch from the time that was the height of the music's popularity ticking away on my wrist.
