STONEHENGEWATCHCOMPANY http://www.stonehengewatchcompany.com Recent blog posts from my shop. en-US Vintage timepieces, my passion, their history, and you. This is an American made 1951 Elgin men's, 17 jewel, manual wind, gold wristwatch.

Where has it been the past 69 years?

Who owned it, was it given as a gift for a special occasion by a loved one?

The craftsman who built it worked for Elgin during the height of American dominance in the watchmaking industry but, where did it go from there and how did it wind up here?

These things fascinate me.
