The pocket watch’s dial sports a deep tan-gold background with dark numerals. It also features a centerpiece pattern with gold-tan lines vertically strung atop a lighter shade of tan. We paired the pocket watch with our robust DLC case and a gold-plated crown. The DLC case compliments the dark numerals, while the gold-plated crown goes perfectly with the dial’s background. The back of the watch boasts 347-grade, open-face movement with a nickel finish and pendant setting, originally tested in three different positions. The back of the watch also boasts gold-plated gears along with a ¾ plate that sports 17 jewels. Finally, we equipped the watch with a gold-plated buckle and our Moss leather watch strap, giving the piece a rustic, unique quality. The Elgin National Watch Company manufactured the pocket watch in Elgin, Illinois, in 1911 — the same year that Louis-Joseph and Arthur Chevrolet and William C. Durant opened the Chevrolet Motor Company. William C. Durant also co-founded General Motors, but he was fired from GM after the company faced economic setbacks from acquisitions. Durant used Chevrolet’s success to buy a controlling interest in General Motors in 1917. He then became president of General Motors and merged Chevrolet as a separate division within GM. \u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Vortic Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39702740140110,"sku":null,"price":3000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1710\/0345\/products\/2022-03-02-6944.jpg?v=1646242276","url":"https:\/\/vorticwatches.mom\/products\/the-chicago-464-46mm","provider":"Vortic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
