Vintage Elgin Sportsman 17 Jewel Manual Wind Watch Gold Tone Date for Parts
Product Details
Vintage Elgin Sportsman 17 jewel manual wind watch offers a classic mid-century aesthetic with its gold-tone base metal bezel and stainless steel back. The silver-tone dial features gold-tone hour markers and hands, along with a convenient date window at the 3 o'clock position. It comes paired with a stainless steel H-link style bracelet. This timepiece shows significant wear, including heavy scratching on the acrylic crystal and tarnish on the case and band, making it an ideal candidate for restoration or a source for authentic vintage parts.
