Incoming Rpaige Wrocket! Antique Elgin Pocket Watch Repurposed
America used to make cool things, and things that last! After a clever restoration and repurposing by RPaige, this old American pocket watch is ready for another round of adventure.
1917 Elgin manufactured 15 Jewel movement with enamel Montgomery dial, now housed in a new hand engraved 42mm case with sapphire case back, 50 meter water resistance and new lumed hands. I am eager to wear this, a lot. The sound it makes is so enjoyable, and you really hear it throughout the day.

Looks cool! Years back they were doing that with Patek pocket watch movement for ~$5000.

This old movement keeps time! I wind it each morning and check it against my phone clock. It has gained or lost so little each day that I can't honestly tell if it has gained or lost anything at all. Wind it in the morning and in return it does its job perfectly. I am impressed. Merica!!!
