Aloha , My Friend always goes to the Swap Meets here and collects watch's and give them to me. He gave me a ... Zip Lock Bag .... few months ago with some .... Fashion Watch's and some Non-Runners. Zip Lock Bag cost him .... $5.00 U.S.D. I like fooling with some of them and this one was in the bag also. So last night I worked on it and got it going and cleaned. This watch was not working at all and I went to do it. It had a ....Tangled Hair Spring .... that I had to straighten up to get it working. Note: As you can see the settling on it is right on ..... ZERO..... . Note : I just wanted to get it going again. Results : It works great now and keep terrific time. ( But I have to many watch's already and it is like a Nickel on me .... . ) Case has some age on it , but the movement keeps .... Long Good Time ..... as I said. Louis Elgin - SWISS , 17 Jewel , Cal. 823 ( 1686 ) , YXY ) Dress Watch ( Gold Plated , but no Strap )
