About Antique Elgin Pocket Watches

Founded in 1864 as the National Watch Company, the later-renamed Elgin National Watch Company was the one of the major watch makers in the United States. Elgins are valued for their reliability, and because they were built with interchangeable parts, so they can be more easily repaired.
