Description: Elgin Sportsman is a project piece ideal for watch repair enthusiasts or parts salvage. The 17-jewel movement, while currently not functioning, still retains its winding capability. The watch comes without a band and is being sold strictly for parts or restoration. The Sportsman line from Elgin represents American watchmaking history, and this example contains a 17-jewel movement, which was a quality standard for its time. Though the watch can be wound, it's not running, making it a good candidate for either repair work or as a donor watch for other restoration projects. Given the current non-working condition and the fact that it hasn't been tested beyond confirming it can be wound, this piece would best serve as a source of vintage parts or as a restoration challenge for someone with watchmaking experience. This timepiece could provide valuable components for other Elgin restorations, particularly for watchmakers seeking authentic period-correct parts for Sportsman models of the same era. Pictures are of the actual item. Please feel free to ask for any additional information or questions you may have. Thank You
