Very rare Elgin "Presentation 1037" men's Art Deco design presentation wristwatch in solid 14K white gold, circa 1931.


The "Presentation 1037" has a fantastic triple-stepped case and was priced at $100.00 in 1931. It is quite rare and this is the first example I have offered in many years. It is in excellent condition showing only light wear. Caseback is excellent, with an elaborate presentation engraving from the Continental Illinois Bank & Trust Company of Chicago. The case measures 37mm long and 24mm wide. Older refinished dial is excellent. Has new glass crystal. The watch is powered by its correct 17-jewel Elgin grade 483 manual wind movement not recently serviced, but running strong. I will service the movement before shipping.


Price $1,000. SOLD
