Lord Elgin 4815 “Ashley” (c. 1952)

A 1940s Hamilton with a 10K yellow gold filled case, solid 18K gold dial markers, and a sterling silver dial.

A nice early 1950s Lord Elgin. The radically curved lug design made for a very distinctive appearance.

This watch has an Elgin signed 14K yellow gold filled case, both bezel and back. This case was manufactured by the Star Watch Case Company for Elgin. The case is in Excellent shape, with only some minor scratches. There is no brassing or wear through on the bezel or back.

The dial on this watch was professionally refinished to the original specifications. The hands are in Excellent shape with no corrosion.

The model 4815 came with Elgin’s 680 movement — a high quality 21 jewel movement. The watch is presently running well and keeping good time.

We’ve added a very nice new leather band to this watch — it’s ready to wear.

The service history of this watch is unknown and it has not been serviced while in our possession. While the watch is keeping very good time right now, you will probably want to have a jeweler clean, oil, and adjust the watch to get the greatest accuracy and the longest enjoyment from your vintage watch.
