Fully Restored Elgin Pocket Watch

Dozerduff

Elgin pocket watch my aunt passed down to me about 15 years ago from her uncle in Brooklyn.

It runs but the hours and minutes hands don't line up as you can see in the pictures above.

Any good recommendations for repairs in Chicago? Would love to get this back in tip top shape and share some pictures and videos with my family.

I did some digging into the Elgin Watch Company as well, and at one point they employed over 60,000 people! Fascinating history and look forward to hearing the community comments and feedback!

Have a great weekend everybody!!
