Serial No. 9,892,777
Grade 217, Model 4
The inside case is marked:
MASCOT
14
Case No. 622256
(Gold Filled)
The watch is currently running when wound. It has not been professionally serviced or tested for accuracy, power reserve, or extended operation. It is therefore being sold as a running antique watch with service history unknown rather than as a recently serviced timepiece.
The white enamel dial features black Roman numerals, red five-minute markers, subsidiary seconds and blued/dark hands. The dial has several visible hairline cracks, including cracks through the upper and central portions and near the perimeter. Please examine the photographs closely.
The case is particularly attractive, with extensive engraving continuing around the case band. It shows scratches, finish wear, discoloration and other age-related wear consistent with an antique pocket watch.
The case is marked “MASCOT 14,” but this listing does not represent the case as solid 14K gold.
Approximate measurements:
Overall weight: 113.14 grams
Case diameter: approximately 50 mm, excluding crown/bow
Movement, dial, case markings and condition are shown clearly in the photographs. Photos form part of the description.
A very attractive early Elgin pocket watch with an unusually elaborate hunter case.
