New Arrivals: Early 1960s Elgin 777 Manual

This Elgin is pure mid-century charm: a clean silver dial with raised gold Arabic numerals, slim baton hands, and a playful red arrow seconds hand sweeping around the edge.

Hidden safely in the monoblock case is Elgin’s grade 777 – a 19-jewel, U.S.A.-made manual movement with an extremely innovative free-sprung balance design that uses small movable balance arm weights rather than a conventional pin regulator to regulate timing.
