    Smile My Latest Clock - 1904 Elgin Pocket watch

    Well now that there is a place to show off my interests, I figured I would share my latest acquisition - a 17 jewel 1904 Elgin pocket watch. I just got it today and to my amazement it started right up and is keeping time perfectly. Enjoy the pictures

    That is a beautiful piece
    Congratulations!
    I have been collecting wrist watches for many years, and now this time-piece of yours made me want a pocket watch as well.

    I always like to see pictures of pocketwatches. I've been collecting them for many years. Nice piece you have there.

    Sorry to disappoint, but the silver clock in the background is a 1919 Westclox Baby ben alarm clock.

    Thanks for all the comments!
