This watch features an eye-catching single-sunk dial that displays thin black numerals with transparent drop shadows. The dial also displays a center design with richly-textured vertical lines and a gleaming subdial. Finally, you can see the pocket watch’s blued-steel solid diamond kite watch hands that look especially striking against its gold-colored background. We complemented the pocket watch’s splendid dial with our robust Machined Titanium case and a gold-plated crown. On the watch’s rear side, you can see its 345-grade open-face movement with impressive details, including its Moseley regulator, Quick train, Going barrel, and Breguet hairspring. You can also see the movement’s luxurious and powerful gold-plated gears and 17 screw-set jewels throughout its ¾ plate. Finally, we paired the watch with our Stout leather watch strap, making this one-of-a-kind antique wearable. \u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Elgin National Watch Company originally manufactured the pocket watch in Elgin, Illinois, in 1924 — the same year in which the Statue of Liberty National Monument opened in New Jersey and New York. The monument contains the titular Statue of Liberty — originally called La Liberté éclairant le monde (Liberty Enlightening the World) — from 1886, the Statue of Liberty Museum, and the retired immigration station on Ellis Island. President Calvin Coolidge declared the site a U.S. National Monument through the Antiquities Act of 1906. In 1966, the location was added to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. \u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"Vortic Watch Company","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44191444861229,"sku":null,"price":2300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1710\/0345\/products\/2022-12-21-9999-2.jpg?v=1671658661","url":"https:\/\/vorticwatches.mom\/products\/the-chicago-521-46mm","provider":"Vortic","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
