Description
Antique Atlas Watch Co pocket watch, Elgin, 1898. The watch has a seven jewel grade 179 stem-winding movement which is working nicely. The movement is signed Atlas Watch Co, Chicago, USA, an alternative name for a series of watches produced by Elgin, believed to be part of a marketing strategy. The movement carries the Elgin serial number 7300272 which dates it back to 1898. The movement is all protected by an inner hinged cover which is stamped Albata, which is an alloy of nickel copper and zinc. The watch measures 55mm diameter excluding the winding stem and the loop. The outer case is silver and is stamped inside the case back Crescent Sterling. The case is in good condition, just a minor flattened area to the side, and the merest hint of unevenness to the patterned case back. The glass lens is in good condition. The signed dial has some damage towards the edge by number 5, and quite a few faint hairlines. One of hands is a period replacement. The watch comes in a new presentation box. ALL PRICES INCLUDE UK POSTAGE (excluding Northern Ireland). Please contact us for international shipping prices. Due to changes in EU regulations, including Northern Ireland, we no longer ship to these destinations. For other countries, The Vintage Wrist Watch Company operates on a Delivery Duty Unpaid (DDU) basis which means that the international buyer is responsible for any import duties, taxes & customs which may be necessary to release an order from international customs. Tax and import duty varies from country to country so we recommend you check with your local tax office to see if any fees will be payable. If the customer refuses to pay any duty and customs charges and the parcel is returned to sender all shipping and associated charges will be deducted from any refund. Due to Customs regulations, we are unable to send watches / precious metals to certain countries. If you are unsure about your country’s regulations, please contact us and we can check for you. Any orders from prohibited countries will be refunded, less any Paypal fees which are non-refundable. All of our watches are checked over before listing, and are also checked for accuracy which is usually within around +/- two to three minutes over 24 hours (unless otherwise stated), which is considered respectable for a vintage watch. We are a VAT registered company and all purchases are covered by Consumer Regulations. Credit / debit card purchases can be made over the telephone on 01386 750238 or you can proceed via the 'Purchase Antique' button on each listing page. Alternatively, there is a Paypal payment link if you scroll down the page and we also accept bank transfers. We are an on-line only business and do not have facilities for callers. Our offices are open from Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm. With regards to appraisals / valuations, we receive a huge number of information requests each day and unfortunately do not have the manpower to deal with them all individually. Our advice would be to contact a local auctioneer for a full appraisal.
