With a legacy spanning over a century, Elgin became a stalwart representative of American craftsmanship, renowned for its commitment to precision, innovation, and timeless design. During its illustrious journey, Elgin made significant contributions to the evolution of watchmaking in the United States. The brand's dedication to excellence was reflected in its high-quality movements and exceptional timepieces, earning it a reputation for accuracy and durability. Elgin watches adorned the wrists of individuals from various walks of life, becoming synonymous with reliability and style. Presenting an extraordinary timepiece, the Elgin Swing Sonic, a men's watch of substantial proportions. This jumbo, large, cushion-shaped model not only exudes a commanding presence but also signifies a pivotal moment in horological history as one of the pioneering electric battery watches. Crafted with meticulous artistry circa 1960, its expansive gold tone case, coupled with distinctive lugs, imparts a sense of opulence. The dial, adorned in a silver linen-style, proudly bears the appellation "Swiss Sonic," underscoring its sonic, electric nature. Remarkably, it features a date complication at 3 o'clock, a distinctive attribute that marks it as a trailblazing model from that era. Immaculately preserved, this timepiece radiates an aura of timeless elegance. Embracing the wrist with refinement is a green padded, stitched leather strap, enhancing both comfort and style. This remarkable watch, akin to new light, is accompanied by a complimentary original box, further attesting to its pristine condition.
