Very scarce Lord Elgin "Crestwood" men's Retro Modern design wristwatch in solid 14K white gold with factory diamond dial, circa 1957.
The "Crestwood" has a large, heavy gold case with flared and faceted lugs. It was priced at $195.00 in 1957. It is very scarce in white gold with a black dial, and this is the first I have offered in many years. This example is in crisp, excellent condition showing only very light wear. Caseback is excellent and unengraved. The case measures 40mm long and 34mm wide. Has new glass crystal. Original black finish dial is superb, has 6 diamond-set markers and 6 solid white gold dart markers. The watch is powered by its correct 23-jewel Elgin grade 730 manual wind movement, just serviced and running strong.
Price $750. SOLD
