1970s Elgin Pendant Watch Necklace

 

 


The ladies pendant watch fashion trend of the late Sixties- early Seventies was part of the Edwardian revival of that era. Many of those watches were cheap gawdy things that really didn't keep time for very long, but like the originals they were fashioned after, watches made by the Elgin Watch Co. (in Elgin, Illinois, USA), were fine, moderately priced time pieces. This ladies pendant watch looks very much like it's counterpart from the turn of the century. It's dainty but weighty, with an intricate scrolled engraving on the front and back, a gold toned face, and it is still keeping good time!  Jeweled movement. Measures 1 3/8" in diameter, it's suspended from a 26" gold toned chain. Stamped Elgin Base Metal on the center of the flower on the back, and Elgin on the watch stem, it's a beautiful, and useful fashion accessory. $145
